Seed phrases were a big UX improvement more than a decade ago. But today better solutions exist. In our last blog post we lay out why Bitkey is different: https://bitkey.build/seedless-is-safer/

If your Bitkey gets lost or otherwise stops working AND the Bitkey servers go dark for whatever reason (bankruptcy, state infiltration, just don't want to provide this service anymore, etc); then you're screwed.

Granted, for BOTH of these to go wrong, it may seem highly unlikely; but ultimately, those are mostly out of your control; and, it's an unnecessary risk to take if you're just willing to take responsibility for your own keys.

I get your point and agree, but lots of folks might still have bitcoin if they could handle the responsibility, but for some reason they couldn't. So its always tradeoffs all around I think.
