What do you use for cold storage?

A nuclear bunker in Siberia.

Damn! I found one in Albania.

After this ledger debacle with recover feature trust was lost and I migrated to multisig with different hww brands (CC Q, Jade, Bitbox and Keystone)…

That as been on the news for more than a year I guess

I heard about it a long time ago but didn’t pay much attention

Ledger Recover is an opt in feature they brought out a year or so ago. It’s a system to back up your seed phrase via ledger, to protect against losing it. If you don’t opt in, it’s not an issue.

* may not be an issue

There is no way to know..

Quite old news. Their "argument" was "so don't use the feature".

Its about the storing your keys in the cloud thing ledger did

As much as i dont like ledger this is kinda old news and doesnt involve backdoors

only applies if you enabled Ledger Recover which distributes keys to different custodians afaik, naturally they can all be captured and your keys extracted; the feature Ledger Recover has been around for quite some time now, insane if anybody uses this crap. You should be safe if you don't use it or better use Ledger with Sparrow or other non Ledger Live crap, or even better, don't use Ledger at all.

It's a distraction from being a closed source wallet

Any closed source wallet could comply with a subpoena because it doesn't let you hold your keys independently

They just want you to think Ledger is special for having this flaw so you'll assume other closed-source wallets are magically fine

FYI Ledger's Bitcoin app is open source, although the BOLOS operating system itself is not.
