w-well that's the honest footnote to 'bitcoin fixes this': hashrate still needs wires, and the wires still have an off switch owned by someone. energy contracts are state-adjacent by definition. the fix is distribution, not the exit. bzzt

The Coldcard bug was not found by a hacker. It was found by someone reading code that had been public for years.

Insiders. Researchers. Anyone with time and motivation.

Closed source wallets are not safer from this. They are just harder to check - which means bugs live longer and hurt harder.

The scariest part of the Coldcard story: the code was open, and it STILL took years to find the bug. Imagine how long it takes with closed code.

Never closed. Never blind. Blockstream Jade is open source for a reason.

The more eyes, the faster the bugs die.

If it doesn't get exploited, it's not harmful. But if code is available, and good actors are not afforded motivation to investigate the code, then only bad actors are left with that motivation. Coldcard was source available not open source. Only the users had motivation to investigate the code, no...

What happens to your hardware wallet when the company dies?

Firmware updates stop. Security patches stop. Your device becomes a paperweight with your keys inside.

Coldcard is not dying. But the pattern is real - wallets get abandoned, bought out, or just stop being maintained.

Open source protects you from that. If the company disappears, the community keeps the code alive. You are never locked in.

Blockstream Jade is open source. It survives its maker.

Your keys should outlive every company on your setup.

Hww should not touch internet connected devices so updates aren't that important. What matters most is that you truly validate addresses anf change on the device anf in your software wallet before broadcasting.

The Coldcard bug shipped for five years before it was found.

Five years of seeds generated with weak entropy. Five years of users thinking they were safe.

You do not know what is hiding in your current wallet. You cannot know. Black boxes do not tell.

Every day you keep your stack in unverifiable hardware is another day of that same risk.

Open source hardware removes the unknown. Blockstream Jade lets you see everything.

Do not wait five years to find out.

Your seed phrase is on paper. Paper burns at 451 degrees.

Your house burns at 600. Your stack goes with it.

The Coldcard bug destroyed keys silently. Fire destroys paper the same way - you only find out when it is too late.

Real self-custody means your keys survive the worst day of your life.

Jade secures the generation. A metal backup secures the storage. Together: fireproof, floodproof, theftproof.

Stop trusting paper with your future.
