hot take:
it's still disturbing to me how many respected bitcoiners refuse to use a Coldcard
they will really say bitcoin is trustless money, then say they can't trust Coinkite anymore in the same breath
the absence of sufficient entropy was the issue - period
get out of the mid curve; it’s just embarrassing

- purchased 0.098 BTC
- for $9,068.36 CAD
- at an average price of $92,315.98 CAD ($67,137.92 USD)
including Shakepay rewards, total accumulation is 0.106 BTC
that’s 8% more sats stacked from just rewards

new COLDCARD firmware is available: 5.6.1 for Mk4/Mk5 and 1.5.1Q for Q.
following this update, every newly generated seed now requires one source of user entropy:
- at least 65 key presses with unpredictable timing,
- 50 physical dice rolls, or
- 128 physical coin flips.
this input is combined with fresh entropy from the STM32 TRNG, SE1, and SE2

for those that need to hear it, buying bitcoin at $58k versus $63k makes no difference
$63k is just 8.62% higher than $58k
an 8.62% increase higher than the prior bear market low of $17k is $18,466

Dr’s Perrenod and Santostasi’s latest bitcoin Power Law/log periodic analysis shows:
- $73k in 12 months
- reclaim $100k by end-2027
- $203k in 24 months
- next major peak ~Jan. 2030
the thesis:
bitcoin’s long-term price follows a Power Law, while its deviations from that trend exhibit log periodic/scale invariant structure
these are model-based projections, not price forecasts

if you think Coinkite will die as a result of the entropy attack...

call me crazy, but I’m continuing to use Coldcard:
- I updated the firmware on my Coldcards (Mk4 and Q)
- I wiped the seed on the Q and created a new 24 word seed with 100 dice rolls and recorded it
- I then wiped that seed, created a new 12 word seed with 100 dice rolls and recorded it as two passphrases
- I’ve moved all UTXOs to the new wallets, noting each of their keys and their respective master fingerprints before doing so
entropy was the issue; it never affected me, but I still took precautions to redo my setup

I rolled 100 dice and use passphrases that I created on an Mk4 around ‘22/‘23
I divided UTXOs based on KYC, no-KYC, and coinjoin
what should I do?:
- nothing; funds are SAFU with dice
- send it all to exchange; fuck it
- send each UTXO to a hot-wallet (Sparrow)
- generate a new dice-rolled seed using my Q (f/w 1.5.0) and move coins there
- send all UTXOs to my wife’s Jade

I fall into that camp (100 dice roll + passphrase) - the problem is I still can’t imagine how human entropy, albeit ontop of faulty RNG, is worse than a hot-wallet

self custody should be vendor agnostic

2026-07-31 18:10:30 UTC

a truly Biblical multi-layered attack on self-custody would involve scare tactics that force those who have perfectly good cold-storage into “temporary hot-wallets”, while the adversary coordinates a mass attack on trusted/credible hot-wallet services, à la Sparrow, Nunchuk, etc.

years ago I rolled my 24 word seed phrase with 100 dice and used passphrases based off that seed
and I still this morning went ahead and wiped my Q (I have a spare Mk4, same setup), updated the firmware, created a brand new 24 word seed with 100 dice, and seriously considering moving everything there, with brand new RNG-generated passphrases
I’m not taking anything for granted at this point

2026-07-31 14:13:53 UTC

I have a loved one who:
- has an Mk4
- generated their seed (w/o dice) in the last year
- has not spent from the wallet
- is tech savvy, but no so much in terms of bitcoin
my course of action at this point is to guide them to do the following:
- update their Mk4 firmware
- generate a new hot-wallet on Sparrow desktop
- send the bitcoin to Sparrow wallet
- wipe their Mk4 device
- generate a new seed, preferably using 100 independent dice rolls
- send their bitcoin from Sparrow back to their “new” Mk4
this IMO is the lowest barrier to entry for loved ones that are/may be affected

dice is pure entropy; a RNG is software

nothing says “self-sovereignty” like handing the keys to your money to an all-powerful AI agent and delegating all your personal financial actions through it

Metaplanet should back their bitcoin reserves with a Pokémon TCG Reserve (PTCGR), made up of purely PSA 10 vintage cards and chonkychus
they have a clear geographical advantage they need to arbitrage 🇯🇵

what are folks doing re. bitcoin inheritance?
I find Nunchuk’s Honey Badger plan pricing prohibitive
singlesig + passphrase + secure documentation still seems (to me) the way to go; multisig, whether it’s custodial or not, seems completely unnecessary

if you understand why Jodie Foster didn’t need the seat, you will understand this:
if someone “supposes to know” what active measures to take - let alone any active measures at all - to “fix” bitcoin, your opinion literally means less than nothing to me
no to BIP 361

a Stanford study found that adults who played pokémon heavily as children developed a dedicated area in the visual cortex that specifically recognizes pokémon
this happens because the brain’s flexibility in childhood allows repeated exposure to similar images to “carve out” specialized neural space
if you (like I) were a kid in the 90’s and you committed to memorizing all 151 pokémon, you can memorize a 24 word seed phrase as an adult
no excuse.

bitcoin price action shrugged off Quantum today because the market’s realizing this is “the worst” FUD will get/*can* get
- superposition magic computers straight from Science Fiction will come online, but bitcoin will move to a PQC address model?
