I think we should apply these same standards to wallet coordination/management software. Sparrow Wallet (by the brilliant @craigraw ) has been widely recommended as the gold standard including by @ODELL and @MartyBent

Maybe folks like @ODELL and @MartyBent can help fund (via @OpenSats ?) a formal review of software like Sparrow Wallet and introduce a paid bug bounty program.

Otherwise, I imagine more formally tested software like @Liana Wallet may be more and more appealing to people vs. Sparrow Wallet given what we all just experienced.

And then people could pledge (b...

I think Bitcoin Red Team checked it, so basic AI model check is done. One thing to point out though is there's a huge difference between Sparrow and Coldcard. Sparrow is an open source project (true open source - free to modify), a public good that people should audit and there's no pressure on nos...
