people do need the option to repair devices, especially when they contain valuable information, so I don't see an automatic bricking to be a reasonable solution

I would love to know if I can use one of this to get unlimited data worldwide.

Jokes aside, keystone wallets are air gapped. And not air gapped but awesome the lesser known but imo best of all, gridplus lattice1.

Heck, even a trezor, despite their mail provider being hacked, is better.

I, however, dont endorse the iPhone idea.

Just don’t buy ledger, terrible company. Many of my friends are getting endless spam because of them. The key backup is a disaster after they promised it was not possible to retrieve it. Their software stack is closed source.

This is imo the last nail in the coffin for them. They should refund all the money lost, and issue a worldwide recall.

Lots to hate about them.

There's a medium. Something ironically close to apple's 'non fully approved and supply chained repair' thing (especially when we consider the case of a screen that could be OCRing data and tossing it out later).

'You have unexpected components. You may want to have your device inspected or risking compromise of x/y/z. Should we continue or lock it down'?

If you can't back up your keys, then what?

I'd rather have to buy another wallet than have to worry that someone is able to drain it.
