I'm looking for advice on a good 'signing device' / 'hardware wallet' (whatever you want to call it). I've heard good things about the nostr:nprofile1qqsfy229w70e8lgtxavlz9t78k06yrel6fxyhreteafqet8kfxhhwmg2c6av2 #jade and the nostr:nprofile1qqs9v9et20mnqagtgrnrc5qmzcrgmkt2y3087p23vawqlmyczlhfdcqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejszxmhwden5te0vejk2ern9ehx7um5wghxyctwvshhq6trwvq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmnyrwt363 #coldcard. Are there any other good recommendations before I make my purchases? #asknostr

nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl Save yourself a bunch of money and get a seedsigner. Or get a coin kite and be prepared to spend $200 every 2-3 years when a new release causes the one you have to stop receiving updates.

Ideally, you buy the parts and build it yourself. No one needs to know what you’re building or that you have a signing device. If that’s not for you, then there’s pleb run stores that sell the seedsigner. I pulled this list from seedsigner’s website. SEEDSIGNER KITS / ASSEMBLED SIGNERS: – EU/UK: GoBrrr, VULCAN, DIYNodes, BitcoinBrabant, Bitsaga – USA/Canada: BTC Hardware Solutions (by project leader/creator) – Brazil: StackBit – Australia: HansMade If you have any questions, let me know. I’ve been an advocate for the project since its release. I will say if you plan to spend a lot on-chain and think you’ll be doing so quite often, then you might be better off with a device that holds the keys within the device and has a secure element. I use Lightning for all my daily, weekly, monthly spending and receiving of sats. No hardware signer for that. For cold wallets, the seedsigner is my recommendation. I can’t make a 2nd recommendation, but if I had to look into another device, it would be the BitBox. I already have a Jade and ColdCard Mk3 and a Krux. They’ve been collecting dust for years. You might also notice the seedsigner has a fantastic user base, too. We’re all tinkerers, and we love to help others. I could type all day about it.

As far as I can tell, a signing device is the same thing as a hardware wallet, being that the device is used to sign transactions. How is the #trezor treating you? I've heard a mixed bag of reviews for this, everything from "it's the best device out there" to "trezor should die of gonorrhea and rot in hell". 🤔
