I’ve listened to about 5 of them and they were all great!

Nice interview. BitMEX sounded like a fun place to work.

The way I read it, frostsnap is the only complaint one. This is about the manufacturer helping users recover funds by bypassing the device pin in some way. We don’t have a pin so we’re fine.

And just like that your bitcoin is no longer stored in your house, there's no descriptor backup you can lose and anyone with 2-of-3 devices can restore the funds. Once you obtain this level of peace of mind you can never go back.

Nice I am working on something like this for myself. Where’s the code?

Observation: for about 3 weeks I’ve been like a rabbit in headlights, frozen almost, fearful, as the Bitcoin price plummeted.
Only now am I managing to wrestle back control of myself, and start to...
Everyone with conviction has to pay these tuition fees at least once mate. The classic mistake is making big plans at a certain BTC price and having to execute them at a lower one. Sounds like you’ll make it through ok.

Can these devices work for multiple wallets? For example, im 1 of 3 on my wifes and my kids wallets. I shouldnt have to have multiple devices right?
Great question. For now you will need multiple devices. This isn’t a fundamental limitation but a design decision taken to simplify things, especially backups.

Hmmm I’ve been thinking about this problem of the blind signer as I have been vibe coding this:

But how do you know if it’s the person who bought the service or not? Email login?

I’m too retarded to provide specific direction other than stating the obvious: privacy good, people want backups so they’re not solely responsible, while also not opening themselves up to being su...
I think that what remains is to show that you can do blind Schnorr + FROST naively without modifying the blind schnorr signing algorithm and the FROST signing algorithm. There’s also work on making ZKPs so you can prove things about the tx without revealing the whole tx (e.g. you could put a spending limit).
Right privacy good but it also makes it had to be a backup for someone unless they can identify themselves as the true owner of the coins. Maybe there’s something there though where the blind signer would only sign if you prove the utxo it’s spending (without revealing which one) is older than X months to enforce a sort of scriptless degrading recovery mechanism.
What would be cool would be to make the blind signer programmable so we don’t have to think too much about how to build the product — even better make it a reasoning AI prompt that you set up yourself to vet anyone who claims to be the rightful owner of your coins in the future. i.e. upload yourself to the cloud so you can grief your progeny as they try to claim their inheritance.

Nice! Is there a plan to add blind schnoor signatures eventually? After remote signing?
I think the cryptography for that is partly sorted out but we don’t have concrete designs on a blind signing service tbh. Do you have any thoughts about what you’d like to see?
