I haven't thought deeply about this but why not just have a coldcard backup and/or seedphrase metal backup (assuming its not a direct portal to your wallet) instead of the HW itself? It'd be easier to bugout with SD cards than a HW which is for an obvious purpose than SD cards with encrypted files. I'm just trying to engage, because I think about this myself and wonder if I'm bugging out I'm expecting inspection somewhere and I'm not about to be a brain wallet person.
This is if your house is gonna burn down, or to stash at the office Or if shit goes sideways. You need hardware to spend.
It's definitely worth thinking through. My philosophy is spending HW signer agnostic and HW wallet is more about reliable entropy seed generation and later if I need to spend I can get a new HW wherever I land. But probably good to have quick spend sats available so maybe a HW with some spendable (but loseable) sats along with a more secretive cold storage backup, I dunno just thinking out loud
There are endless combos of what one can do but you need the gear to do it. In a crisis I don't want to track down things I don't have. I am only showing my spare gear that is a spare kit no particular preference to brand. This could be stashed at a storage unit you keep with bugout gear. I am a prepper and have a few locations where I have kits of gear and food/water, copies of important paperwork, laptop, id etc. It is all about covering the basics so you have the time and clarity to make good choices.
I agree. My focus on assuming someone will intercept me to look at my shit and to be as unassuming as possible it’s a worthy conversation!
I often think people put too much weight on being searched or confronted. I also think people imagine leaving the country way more than dealing with a local disaster. The end of your world is going to happen before the end of the world. Most likely no one is ever going to get touchy. If things get that spicy then yeah, you start making other choices.
You could be right and that makes sense. I mean, in the event of a natural disaster I know where I would take my family. In the event of civil war, I really don't know where I would go but I would want to be able to pay bribes without telegraphing the extent to which I could pay a bribe. I often settle on having more bullets.
Replace the cold card mk3 with the Foundation Passport. Same hardware but better UX and still getting firmware updates unlike mk3.
Nice setup. Good idea bringing the dice.
Great bag
Nice. Definitely a good idea
