If you are planning to bury your #bitcoin hardware wallet and not touch it for 10+ years, reconsider. You cannot assume that hardware will keep functioning. Even a simple screen malfunction could prevent you from accessing your #btc. Relying on hardware wallets as long-term storage is risky. For long-term backups, store your seedphrase instead.

If the worst happens in the US, one could leave and buy a new device in Switzerland, Singapore, El Salvador, etc., apply the seed phrase and be back in business, right? Assuming one can transact with an off ramp into the local currency.
