Funny that I listened to this when you posted it, not noting the names of the artists, then a couple days ago, when I was with my Grandpa on hospice, I asked my dad what music he would like to listen to while he rests. He mentioned andre rieu which i thought i had never heard of before, and lo and behold my grandpa had a CD right there in his apartment. I played the andre rieu CD, “From Holland, With Love,” and about halfway through the CD, my grandpa passed away peacefully. Today, I was looking through youtube to play other andre rieu songs when this one got queued up and started playing. I knew i recognized it from somewhere but it took me a minute to realize it was from this post just a few weeks prior. Just a weird synchronicity that I thought I’d share

thank you

last thing is that you must study multisig recovery mechanism before diving in. if you dont know what descriptor, xpub, derivation path, script type, etc mean then you need to learn before making a multisig wallet

those are fine choices. i dont want to make any recommendations beyond just listing the options like in my first message. multisig especially important for large amounts

the idea with multi-vendor multisig is that you’re protected against any one of the vendors going down at one time. it is much more complicated though and introduces a lot of ways you can mess up yourself and lose your own funds because you don’t remember how you set things up. i wouldnt trust coldcard with any funds ever again because 1) they had an egregious error in their security code that people are arguing either represents extreme incompetence or intentional malice (which would mean a long jail sentence for the creators, 2) the code is still not open source (like most of the other HWW options i listed) so you can’t verify that there are not other vulnerabilities, 3) CC will likely be sued and their company will not be able to make it financially, this means that the wallet firmware won’t be maintained and any new security issues can’t be patched and any updates to bitcoin in the future won’t be supported, 4) there are a lot of people in the bitcoin space working together right now auditing the codebases of all the open source wallets and disclosing any vulnerabilities. it doesnt seem like the other HWW’s had any vulnerabilities that could have resulted in loss of user funds like this one, but they are nonetheless strengthening their security and hardening their codebases. At the end of the day, CC failed at the most basic of security tasks, so they are dead to me. If you just had your bitcoin in one of the other single sig wallets it’s possible that they would have never fallen because their security code is not flawed, but this episode taught me that unless I personally have verified the code, I am risking losing all my funds at some point in the future. So for me, personally, I want to mitigate that risk with multisig. But the final decision is up to you. If you are not technical and feel the risks of losing your own funds with multisig are higher than the risks of being rugged with single sig by one of the HWW companies, then don’t do multisig. One other option that is sort of unique is the bitkey which is a collaborative custody multisig which would protect you from compromise of one of the keys but you are also putting sole trust in Block to secure your funds. They do make it much easier for non-technical people though and would help with backups and wallet recovery

coldcard is dead. device will be unsupported going forward. this event pushed me to multisig. many options (no particular order): jade, seedsigner, ledger, bitbox, trezor, passport, etc
