I’m sorry but everything seems to be getting compromised and hacked rn. I’m sure I’m not the only skeptical one right now but I figure I ask for some input. Thanks Edit: I do cold storage but rethinking everything since these hacks continue s...

A pure 40-bit Coldcard seed wasn’t really cryptography. It was just a huge list of 1.1 trillion possibilities. Once the first serious attackers had working code, it was pretty clear what to do: finish the list. There was a small space, enough money,...

I started accumulating back in 2020, saved heavily and convinced my wife after realising that Bitcoin is the greatest monetary system and store of value that we should go all in. Got up to 5 BTC at my peak in 2021, and that’s when greed kicked in. I...

I like Matthew Kratter, but this is just sad. Don't give up brother, stick to your LukeJr chain and don't ever download the dirty Blockchain ever again. All that buildup for months just to give up in hours is beyond pathetic. sub...

After reading about cases where weak entropy led to unsafe keys and people losing funds (recent bitcoin COLDCARD attack) , I decided to learn more about entropy and how it is generated. There are different ways to generate entropy, like TRNGs,...

Coinkite likely won't survive the coming litigations. NVK and Peter Gray won't regain community trust as leaders. But I think it's worth discussing why the ColdCard was a successful product line in the first place and how that design phil...

To explain the Coldcard disaster as simply as possible, imagine you have 3 billion grains of sand, and one grain is marked. If I ask you to find the marked grain, you have to search through billions of grains. Pretty difficult. Now imagine I make a m...
