    -Not sure why this is that complicated for ppl. Like BIP-39 has 2048 words. Choose one. Then do that another 23x. Now you have your seed. Cold card can still be used to sign but don't have it generate a seed. Also. If you want to quantum proof go multisig.

     Spot Bitcoin ETFs are legally required to hold the Bitcoin that backs the shares, and those holdings are audited and disclosed…
     
     You’re not trusting an individual but rules/regulations that have been around a long time and current enforcement.

     What happened with Coldcard was the result of incredibly low entropy during the seed generation process, something the rest of manufacturers ([us included](https://github.com/BitBoxSwiss/bitbox02-firmware/blob/c838d7fd80190a02531ba30e4a904240e4485e1f/src/rust/bitbox02-rust/src/keystore.rs#L577)) take very seriously.

How to check this yourself

The excerpts and plain unified diffs above show the text this project held and how it changed. To verify a quotation, compare it against the page itself or against the Internet Archive's copies, which are independent of this project.

Complete captures are held offline rather than mirrored here, so this page shows diffs and excerpts. If a quotation is ever disputed, the full copy can be produced. Ask.
