Yeah I really can't see a use case for this

All they had to do was add a simple display for address verification.
This shit isn't hard & there's no way to confirm an internet connected device, in this case your computer broadcasting the signed transaction, is compromised or not.
Furthering the madness,
Are people really going to allow this thing to generate their PKs?
Seed generation on a device without a screen?????
Wtf #[10]
On boarding a lot of people with a lot of different hardware wallets/signing devices I would like to take a stance for this solution. Most people donât self custody because itâs to difficult. So how can we get them to easily and cheaply self custody?
The most sold device on planet earth is a closed source, data leaking, chainalysis cooperating low quality, physically connected to the internet, shitcoining ledger.
Would an open source, air gapped cheaper, bitcoin only and more intuitive wallet be an improvement as first step? I believe it is.
Closed source or not, there's a screen onboard the device.
I'm all for different solutions, but man - no display just seems super duper dumb.
I understand and youâre correct for bitcoiners. But for the majority of people verifying something on a different screen is already to difficult. Especially a bitcoin address. I can imagine that people actually just buy these devices to sign transactions and save their bitcoin thatâs it. No physical backups, just two of these devices with the same keys synced. Theyâre fingerprint protected so theyâll just lay them in two separate locations. If this syncing would be possible Iâm curious if they would be able to this device to device via bluetooth for instance. You wouldnât want the keys to touch the phone.
Of course it seems like that to you, because you canât think, and are mind blind, believing that millions of dollars are being spent to develop a device and service without any testing or focus groups. Its patheticly blind and ignorant.
My comments are for the plebs & the people here on Nostr.
I provide insight into self custody solutions, habits, and common pitfalls.
This is the main conversation I've been having on Bitcoin socials, & considering I get paid for none of it - the output is as impartial as it gets.
If you believe this is good for the masses, okay, they aren't of any concern to **me** though.
And so thereforeâŚwhat? They should stop production? Isnât that what antiBitcoiners said? âI donât see the point of Bitcoin; I have my Chase app and credit cardâ.
Why are people so insufferably dull witted?
Yes that's precisely what Block should do, listen an in internet anon who's apparently not allowed to have an opinion đ¤ˇđťââď¸
Nice to see you haven't changed in the transition from Twitter đ
âSelf custody or bust.â But only on elitist devices approved of by me. LOL, youâre not going to like Bitcoin when a billion more people are on it. Donât worry, youâll still be an âOGâ.
