Let’s forget for a moment that #COLDCARD was built on the back of open-source software, including GPLv3-licensed code developed by #Trezor.

Let’s forget that @N was perfectly happy to benefit from the open-source work of others, but when Foundation built Passport using #COLDCARD’s own GPLv3-licensed code, he cried foul, and #Coinkite then moved newer #COLDCARD code away from genuine open-source licensing to basically:

“You can look at it, but you can’t use it to compete with us.”

Let’s forget all of that.

You had one job:

Generate and secure the private keys.

This is rich… NVK who sat on Seedsigner domains for years all while producing vulnerable wallets… Oh the irony 😂

Trezor's GPL code exploited, yet nobody sues. Tells you who really holds power: corporations, not laws.

Let’s not forget open sats. Who is involved with that 501c charity and handing out grants to potential competitors. Oh wait nvk is on the board I think

It’s probably the event that triggered this whole thing: https://x.com/zherbert/status/2082993276324319713

Also remember the block clock shit. That is when I lost all trust in NVK. Unfortunately I still thought the coldcard was safe... Should have known better.

Yet did the user documentation specifically include the step of back loading fifty prep #whatevers ?

It isn't, like, illegal to be incompetent in this field, is it?
