So, after the ColdCard incident, I've got the equipment I'm going to use to secure my stash for the forseeable future. Mutli-vendor, multi-sig, etc.
But this whole incident made me wonder, would it be a good idea to leave at least a little BTC in each of the base wallets of the signers that make up my multisig, to act as a sort of canary for future compromises, before the multisig itself is breached? 50,000 sats per signer would be a small price to pay for insurance against the whole stash. #bitcoin #asknostr
