Helping a newbie set up a HWW and backup. To passphrase or not to passphrase?
I consider it equivalent (more or less) to using a 2-of-2 multi-sig, in terms of added security and added risk/responsibility.
Storing the passphrase separately from the words will improve your backup security. But both should theoretically be in steel… right?
What are your thoughts?
