NVK knew in 2021. He told Matt Odell. https://npub1ak68qfcjj7k95c0jwleu69x72nr8adwv6g80pkwl9xlps6zmkqzqrxy8fx.blossom.band/200f65747d4b50e01a6e912a628e2c1da49fc4a45c5bfdccc2cb4fef783e8776.mp4

Here’s what it doesn’t answer. What was the knowledge. Who told him to sit on it. Whether it’s the same entropy bug that just drained over a hundred million dollars from people who trusted this hardware. And if it is the same bug, why five years passed with users exposed while at least one person in Bitcoin media apparently knew enough to protect himself and stay quiet about the rest of us.

I’m not saying I know the answer. I’m saying Matt does, and he told his own audience he wasn’t allowed to share it.

Odell built a career on “don’t trust, verify.” Fair enough. Verify this one yourself. Go listen to the March 29 2021 episode. Then ask him directly, publicly, why the guy who tells everyone else to check everything had a piece of knowledge he chose to keep in his pocket while people kept buying a device that turned out to be broken.

The cover up is always worse than the crime.

Trust no third party, own your keys, as Epictetus said, "It's not what happens, but how you react."

Totally normal not to expose a bug until people have time to upgrade. Odell’s mistake was not intentionally fooling people but rather fully trusting someone (NVK) and as a result pushing a product he didn’t understand. There’s no scenario in which guys like Odell were aware for the last 5 ...
