2/3 multisig is the ultimate travel wallet. Imagine:

You have one key on your phone, one on a HWW, and one with a trusted friend/family member who is not travelling with you.

Load it up. $10K+ worth of ₿ at your disposal with virtually no risk.

Travel protocol:

- keep your phone on you

- HWW stays at hotel

- trusted friend knows they're your lifeline

Mugged on the street and lost your phone? No problem.

Hotel maid steals your HWW? No problem.

You have multiple options to access the funds in case of emergency.

Don’t.

Split.

Up.

Your.

Key.

You are decreasing your security exponentially.

We're talking about traveling monies that you plan on spending right?

That means your risk is physical theft or loss.

I have a couple of "secure" passwords made up of 5 common(ish) words each

I had a real scare a couple years ago shortly after creating one of them, in which I thought I'd forgot it and locked myself out of my own computer. Thankfully after maybe half an hour I was able to recollect enough to figure it out.

Maybe I am just retarded.

But I wouldn't want to bet a substantial fortune on my ability to remember an exact progression of common words.

If you're traveling with something substantial like an entire net worth then youd have a full backup in an secure location or locations

I need your LN so I can get some comfrey from you good sir
