As I read this it occurred to me that probably one of the best ways to express the rage without making things worse is to write code to reverse the impact of the source of the rage.
Or, in my case as a non-coder, to use the code written by others who have done so.

Thanks! So to be clear will this ‘override’ your permanent seed while the temp seed is in the device and then default back after it’s wiped?
I’m not quite understanding how it works when both are in there.

Yes have that option added! Am updating my tutorial and I read that with the latest firmware @npub1s0v…pq6j allows for the calculation of the checksum :)
I’m just not sure if it is possible once there is already a seed phrase set up .. like if one wants to keep the one that is there and just use the checksum calculation function for a seed phrase that will be used with a different device?

2025-03-24 23:08:08

@npub1s0v…pq6j If a Passport is set up already, can it still be used to calculate the checksum for another seed phrase that was rolled with dice, without affecting the current wallet/setup? Thanks!

Yes, I am updating a tutorial I made previously about rolling your own seed phrase with dice, so my issue was with the Jade’s UX/UI regarding that task.
It does allow you to do it, but it is very confusing

2025-03-18 17:58:59

#note1tr2…9qxg

2025-03-18 17:40:12

I figured it out!
I asked the same question on the blue bird app, and @npub1neu…t2vz gave me the clue I needed!
After I hit calculate, it asked me to insert the 12th word (really bad UX/UI) and only allowed me to select certain letters.
When I selected ‘a’ it gave me nine word options.
I was confused because I usually use 24 word seeds and there are only eight checksum options.
Sani mentioned that there are 128 options for a 12-word seed,
so I realized the jade was showing me all the available checksums beginning with ‘a’!
@npub1jg5…6n8n I request that you change the wording on the screen after selecting ‘Calculate’ to say something like:
> Select any letter
Then on the next screen,
> Choose a 12th word
(instead of select, which implies at least to me, that there is a correct word to choose)
There is probably even a better phrase to use on that last screen.
Also, at the beginning of the flow, once one selects ‘Advanced Setup’, I would love to see ‘Calculate Checksum’ or ‘Calculate 12/24th Word’ as an option under ‘Create New Wallet’ and ‘Restore Wallet’ 🙏
Thanks for considering, I really love that the Jade allows for the checksum to be calculated, just need a clearer UX/UI 🧡😊

Mm mine was recognized so not sure if I can help. Also mine had been initialized in the past, I don’t know if that made a difference.
Here’s what I did:
- Downloaded @npub1jg5…6n8n Green wallet on my laptop
- Plugged the Jade in via USB C (I still have the original cord, not sure if that makes a difference)
- Green wallet app online recognized my device (displayed the same fingerprint as shown on the device)
- I selected the option to update the firmware without radio
- It took a few minutes to complete.
Oh, something else, I had forgotten the pin so before I entered the last try (you get three tries), I did a factory reset:
- Switch the device off
- Then switch on and immediately when you see the jade logo, you press the black select button next to the screen and it opens an option on the screen to do a factory reset.
In case you want to try that, if it doesn’t work the first time, just keep trying because you need to time the pressing of the select button right as that logo flashes on the screen .
Hope that helps. Overall I spent hours on it all yesterday 😂😂 Along with help from @npub1x45…armt @npub1xn7…a73f @npub1j5e…2kek and a couple others as well as Grok and duck.Ai 😅

2025-03-18 17:06:23

Ok I got the firmware updated and the @npub1jg5…6n8n Jade is functional again 😅
Now, please can someone tell me the flow to calculate a 12/24th word checksum 🙏🙏
I have followed the instructions but when I get to the option to ‘Calculate’ and select that, it wants me to enter the 12th word.
I am running the latest firmware.

Ok fair, and the point of the post was about connecting your wallet to a node.
While you could connect many wallets to many nodes, most keep their cold storage stash on one (maybe two) wallets.
Running nodes without wallets connected to them is of negligible value to the network. While they help with relaying txs and blocks, they do little else.

Did I say only one? ;)

- reply

May I ask why you have 12 if one only needs 3?
I guess the main reason I have a bunch is I think (perhaps incorrectly) that if I want to read from and write to as many people as possible, I should have more relays to be sure I am able to connect with a lot of people (because if we don’t share a relay we wouldn’t be able to connect)

2025-03-12 15:49:42

Thanks for writing this.
A question on the web of trust option, how exactly would they designate a new key?
And am I correct in thinking that even once this is done, the compromised user would still need to start over with their followers/following?
Or does the solution make it so that one keeps one’s follower/following lists and now the new key is basically like a hard fork of the old account (and the old compromised account hacker could keep posting as you)?
Appreciate further clarity 🙏

Breathe 🙏
Specifically, count of 4 in, hold for 7, out for 8.
Repeat until you feel calm and relaxed, can be a minute, can be 5 mins, depending on the stress level to start.
The technique basically switches one from sympathetic to parasympathetic nervous system.. then you can think clearly again and decide how to proceed ..
And remember to give thanks for ten things that are going right (including your breath 💜)

I did, and I appreciate the detailed explanation, yet from my limited technical understanding of dark skippy and cryptography/code in general, I cannot decipher whether the security architecture of the MK4 mitigates for it or not, albeit it is clear that there is incredible security built in to the device.
That said, I also don’t see anything in the article referencing the security architecture of the Coldcard Q, which is why I asked if it shares the same architecture as the MK4? Is there an article about the Q, and/or specifically about your thoughts on dark skippy/anti exfil?
I checked the website again and don’t see mention of Bluetooth so assume Q doesn’t use it, which I am happy about given this latest article 😅
