The Jade has a very unique offline way of using dice rolls to generate a seedphrase.
Here's a video tutorial I made on the process.
Lots of people moving Bitcoin.
BE CAREFUL!
I just did a call with someone and they were moving to a Jade, and they downloaded a fake Jade app on their computer. Luckily they thought something was off, called me, I confirmed that it wasn't the official one, and we did it properly
Reports of entropy being as low as 32 bits (1 second to hack) for mk4/mk5/Q. Coinkite says as low as 72 bits (1500 years to hack)
Personally I don't trust what coinkite says right now and would move my Bitcoin to a secure setup. Especially if you have no additional passphrase.
It looks like this mk3 hack is happening because of insufficient randomness using the device itself. Unless you add your own entropy you will be subjected to some level of trust in their rng devices.
Here's how to dice rolls your seedphrase.
A small stop gap recommend for those affected by the mk3 hack is to move from a seedphrase only wallet to a passphrase wallet. This is only a solution if you don't have another hardware wallet, and should only be seen as secure as the passphrase you correct. Video how to below.
I'll be doing a Live BIP activation watch party on my youtube channel on the 8th.
What Bitcoiners would you like to see join me on there?
I'm part of two Bitcoin communities and I provide access to a node for members to connect to who aren't running their own node yet.
One is Bitcoin core, and one is Bitcoin knots signaling for BIP 110, and they can decide whichever they prefer to use.


The easiest way to make money in Bitcoin continues to be to trick plebs.
Use this as a cautious lens when you are new to or under educated in a realm of Bitcoin and it will help you protect yourself.
I just got myself a new calculator. It's pretty simple, but it does the trick!


Hot take.
When a bitcoin implementation changed the default policy in a way you didn't like.
Switching to and supporting an implementation with different defaults was an adequate response.
Bitcoin isn't about being right in the short term, it's about being right in the long term.
How valuable it is to have money that is not within the current financial system?
Bitcoin moves violently when it moves, and then it trades sideways for longer than the bears like and longer than the bulls like.
