#Bitcoin, not crypto.

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

Dear Satoshi, I'd like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for not being Craig Wright. #Bitcoin

[₿roodloper @broodloper]

@IIICapital That is why ordinary people remain ordinary

They always opt for comfort and the path of least resistance

And then complain when the "system" freezes their account because of an "radical" opinion or an unpaid parking ticket

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@realhardmoney @isabellasg3 I am not promoting a one size fits all solution. I am just making Isa aware that there is a way to generate her own seed without trusting or relying on any hardware wallet manufacturer. There's nothing wrong in learning something new.

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@isabellasg3 Sure. Here https://t.co/dgV5f7fWQu

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@BobJoe178 @isabellasg3 This article by @parman_the covers the whole process in detail. https://t.co/dgV5f7fWQu

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@AntePurgatorio Looks like it indeed.

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

This is an idea for the new @Coinkite website.

And remember, no matter what "hardware wallet" you use, always BYOE (Bring Your Own Entropy). Also, consider supporting true free and open-source projects like @SeedSigner that are built with BYOE (Bring Your Own Entropy) in mind.

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

Multiple people have already reported that upgrading the firmware bricks the device so move your coins BEFORE attempting any firmware upgrade and never use a ColdCard device ever again.

[COLDCARD @COLDCARDwallet]

Please treat this as urgent. Migrate your funds. Follow the advisory for your model, upgrade your device, generate a new seed, and carefully move your funds.

Help spread the word, especially to people who are less online and may not see this update.

The threat is still ongoing.

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@isabellasg3 Keep doing what you do but do not underestimate the importance of spending some time understanding what you're dealing with. Disasters like ColdCard and FTX happen because people keep trusting third parties to do the work for them.

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@PeterMcCormack Bitcoin has been scaling for 15 years in a row.

Stuff like the ColdCard fiasco, FTX, BlockFi and all the others happen exactly because people refuse to learn, trust the shills and then pay the price.

This ain't GMail or Whatsapp. Blame the people, not the technology.

[TORONTO HODL 🍁 @EnjoyingBitcoin]

I think we can all agree mistakes were made

[Wicked @w_s_bitcoin]

Don’t trust, verify your hardware wallet’s dice roll seed generation functionality! #Bitcoin

[402 Payment Required @402PaymentReq]

Someone had to do it...

[Extractive Ghost of Unhosted Marcellus 👻 @oomahq]

"This is good for Bitcoin"

Do you see now how fucking retarded you sound?

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@CANADIANHODLeh @BTCsessions This https://t.co/n35PWN619D (skip the first 4 minutes or so). And instead of letting @bluewalletio create the seed phrase for you, provide your own entropy like this https://t.co/dgV5f7fWQu and add a passphrase on top of it. Repeat the process 2 or more times for multisig.

[ko₿u @a_koby]

NVK: we are sorry we will continue working

NVK: here is an update to brick your device while you are a scrambling to save your bitcoin

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

LOL this is the best one so far. Go, go, go, go!

@sesi_the_man @SeedSigner @BTCsessions @ODELLXYZ @rabbitholerecap @COLDCARDwallet @MartyBent @nvk "Also, setting up a ColdCard. You can set one up without a computer very easy: just like press go, go, go, go, go and then like you have a secure seed." - Matt Odell (@ODELLXYZ) https://t.co/5L2jj4AErF Apr 29, 2025

[Tech Janitor @tchjntr]

@MartyBent @ODELLXYZ Could you please tell us more about Coldcard's "quantum Bitcoin awesomeness" you retarded fucks?

[Greg Tonoski, BIP-110, Blake2b @GregTonoski]

@sesi_the_man @SeedSigner @BTCsessions @ODELLXYZ @rabbitholerecap @COLDCARDwallet @MartyBent "Comes with quantum Bitcoin awesomeness so this is been long time coming. Matt and I have from beginning getting insight into the build process for this (...) on top of it, obviously, comes with all the firmware, incredible firmware that comes with Coldcard as well" - @MartyBent.
