I genuinely appreciate the insight. I am thinking through a new multi-sig setup. So I’ve been spending a lot of time (and money) testing hardware, backup methods, etc….For whatever reason I couldn’t see the value, but your post really clicked with me. This now feels somewhat obvious, but could a person just make as many seeds as they want, backup the data be it with words or a SeedQR, and use just a single signing device (talking just straight hardware like a single SeedSigner) for all signatures?

Yes, one of the powerful things about SeedSigner is that the marginal cost to create and use new keys is basically zero. And because of the statelessness, it can indeed be used to manage one, multiple, or all keys in a quorum. SeedSigner can be kind of a gateway drug to multisig. Get one, set up a simple 2 of 3, play with it, make transactions, delete and recover it, build confidence, and suddenly multisig seems much more approachable. And based on your understanding of and comfort with our model, maybe a SeedSigner manages your whole quorum, or maybe it's one device among other hardware devices that make up your quorum, or maybe its none and it just facilitated the journey. Like I said, the end goal is sleeping well at night. 🙂
