Before responding, I’d first like to say that I'm really sorry for everyone who has been affected by the recent issue. Losing access to funds or worrying that you might is incredibly stressful. My thoughts are with everyone dealing with the uncertainty.
Hardware wallets solve an important problem. They keep your private key off the computer you use to build transactions and lets you verify what you’re signing.
Multisig goes a step further by removing any single point of failure. Instead of trusting one device, security is shared across multiple keys.
The challenge is that traditional multisig is too complex for most people, requiring multiple devices, vendors, locations and operators.
A federation is effectively a hot multisig. While each key share is online, compromising funds in a 10 guardian federation requires control of 7 independent key shares, held by 7 different operators.
This foundation makes multisig dramatically simpler for end users by providing it as a built in feature of the protocol. We already know multisig is one of the strongest security models. We’ve just didn't have an easy way to make it accessible. Fedi, using Fedimint underneath, is designed to do exactly that.
This is the high level view. More detailed info can be found here: https://fedimint.org/guardians/how-federations-work#multi-signature-custody

No worries and completely understand!
Fedi has been designed based on years of feedback from people around the world with varied needs and circumstances so it has evolved differently from most other wallets.
This article gives you some examples and inspiration.

Finally get time to focus on Nostr.
Day 2 of NostrAsia and seeing so much powerful stuff. Energy levels are like early Bitcoin community levels.
Too many great things to single out anything without being unfair.
Thank you everyone! Excited!

The growth of deep fakes will force us all to reassess / improve upon how we identify anyone and anything.
This will ultimately push people towards technologies like PPK and Bitcoin and away from the culture of taking things at face value, which can so easily be, and has so readily been, abused.

Seeing a lot of interest in exploring Fedimint x Nostr integrations.
It seems that a Fedimint federation is an obvious place to also house and run a Nostr relay:
- Costs to run could be amortized across the community as opposed to being borne by one individual.
- Fees for usage could be charged in e-cash BTC for lower cost/higher privacy.
- It could be a federated Fedimint module (higher censorship resistance/lower throughput) or it could just be separately hosted by one or more of the guardians.
I could imagine a similar case could be made for other decentralised/self hosted web standards such as BitTorrent, DWNs, web servers, etc as well.
Of course, technical analysis on what would make the best implementation sense would be needed, and one would need to think about making the installation and set up as bulletproof, low/no maintenance, and as simple as possible, in line with Fedimint's current design philosophy.

I'll be buying an iPhone and installing Damus in the next week or two. Probably one of the few apps I'll install! 😅

Hi all. Love to see you guys working on something so important. Need more heads down and building like this. 👍🏾🙂
