The read-only CD backup is a clever idea. The shelf-life of optical discs isn't terribly long but could be a good fit for this use case. π§‘ View quoted note β

TLDR for those who missed this:
. RPi 0, 0W, 02W, 2 & 3 have permanent ROM that is burned in at the factory
. "Firmware" is split between the Pi AND the microSD
. Verifying the code on the microSD is authentic is vital, but simple
. Sharing a signer is not ideal, but can be viable w/ trusted 3rd parties View quoted note β
For clarity, the SeedSigner only stores keys temporarily until power is disconnected, but it does make getting comfortable with multisig a lot easier. βΊοΈ View quoted note β

Last few have been a little jarring -- really appreciate my ride-or-die SeedSigner peeps, you know who you are. π§‘
This made me LoL. In seriousness, I appreciate all of the pods who have had me or someone else from the project on as a guest, especially those who have a HWW sponsor and are still willing to talk about other options. π§‘ View quoted note β
Nominal amt of sats to post seems like it would go a long way to resolve the spam issue. Pretty painful right now.
SMH, LoL. 

Yup.
And we will continue to be here with a compelling alternative model, that requires much less trust in manufacturers and distributors.

It is an exceedingly simple process to verify and write new firmware/software to your SeedSigner, and it takes at most a couple of minutes. Users with any concern about their device can easily re-deploy to put those concerns to rest. The messaging put out there by both the Dark Skippy researchers and Odell/RHR was unfortunate, but those who have learned about our security model and been through the process know better. Myself and our contributors are as confident and bullish as ever on our project, which serves both those who may have difficulty acquiring cold storage tools, and those who are seeking more trustless cold storage solutions.
