There is a strange and unsettling irony in the fact that bitcoiners want ordinary, hardworking people to “roll the dice” to secure their wealth.
Money has to be dead simple to store and use, all...
it's not that bitcoiners "want" ordinary people to roll dice; it's that at this point it seems the best way to secure this money without relying on third parties that ordinary folks can't audit
this disaster is a gut punch to the whole idea of self-custody, but I think (hope) that the lesson will be integrated into the culture: unless you can verify the entropy yourself, maybe best to take the extra step and roll the dice
