Juan Galt suggests it would be a big win if Trezor bought Coinkite's intellectual property, cleaned up the firmware and kept the form factor. It is a speculation with nothing behind it: no offer, approach, valuation or source is claimed, and neither named company is quoted. Held as a dated data point in the vendor-viability discussion that ran through the first week, where owners and commentators openly weighed Coinkite continuing, being acquired or closing. Nothing here indicates the position of either company.
