This past week was a nightmare and forced me to reexamine a lot of my assumptions and threat models. Two topics bubbled to the top alot that I thought warranted videos... so I got to work. How do you use dice to generate your own entropy when creating keys? This video uses dice and the @SeedSigner to accomplish just that, while verifying using an external tool. Putting trust in a single hardware vendor means having all your eggs in one basket. One tactic may be to keep some of your corn in different devices. Another may be to combine them into a multi-vendor multisig. This video goes through doing the latter - on Sparrow with Trezor, Jade and @BitBox , then on mobile with @npub1cvql...yjt3 @SeedSigner and @Blockstream Jade. There's no perfect answer for EVERYONE, but it's worth exploring your options and seeing what works for you. BTW if you are finding these videos helpful, ALL of my tutorials will now be uploaded to Sovereign Sessions. Join me there: https://www.youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1

Also, always use passphrase. Since trezor 1 where they got access to seed when accessing to physical device, it's a must.
I like these changes in bitcoin content. I was glad bitcoin got me out of the political news cycle, then I feel like I fell into a bitcoin news cycle. This is what bitcoin needs
Here's something I've been working on along similar lines: Haven't published it yet, since it needs a helper video and some serious analysis (i.e. how biased are normal dice, and how biased is hand rolling) and of course concrete recommendations for the final word fixup. But being able to *verify* that your phrase is random is far better than other approaches, if you're going to roll...
Dice, coins, cards don't have to be unbiased. If they are biased, they just need to be biased in an unpredictable way.
