Replying to an account telling the company it is going bankrupt, the COLDCARD account answers that it is very likely they will not be around, but that this is no reason to stop trying to give people the best version of the firmware they can. The plainest statement held from the vendor about its own survival, posted nine days into the incident and alongside the halted shipments already recorded at tftc-shipments-halted. It is a remark on the company's social account, not a filing, a notice or a statement of accounts, and this project has not confirmed anything about Coinkite's financial position.

This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication.
