Replying to Avatar TheBitcoinManual

A startup named Unciphered is trying to make a name for itself by pushing out research claiming a number of bitcoin wallets were designed with baked-in flaws that leave a backdoor in the code that hackers could easily break open.

If you are a hodler prior to 2012 and you're still using legacy addresses, I mean damn son, why haven't you moved to segwit or taproot?

I don't mind the fud, always a good reminder to check in on your stack and if it shakes a few people out and I can get some cheap sats, even better

Uhh, whatever you do, don't put your public key and personal details into a random website form.
