THE HWW REVOLUTION IS HERE

A DEVICE YOU CAN ACTUALLY TRUST WITHOUT INSECURE SE’s LIKE THE ATECC608B MEANT FOR A SMART LIGHT BULB

AND MADE TO BE ACTUALLY SECURE

REGISTER NOW FOR EARLY ACCESS nostr:note1gwvldxqwf3wfjvt8x86vlzc4h872csqpv925ewqjg3wpjf5kue6smprq0h

There’s also the issue that you can’t verify whatever the factory may have loaded initially (so all installed ā€œupdatesā€ are tampered with by the previous FW) and that I cannot provide the toolchain to compile it even if I share the code

Unfortunately not, the firmware interface and DPA and fault injection countermeasures are under NDA.

All tooling outside it though will be.

there are people that should be more concerned if that was the case

I see no reason to use Nostr for this, and if Microsoft decides to censor my very simple product survey, I can always self host.

You will be able to lock the HWW remotely (this uses a completely self-hosted server, and it can be backed up with a small file).

After you do, it can’t sign even if you found a way to attack it: the server holds an encryption key that encrypts the seed on device and with that destroyed or not provided, it’s useless.

You can also use this to do a lot more nostr:note1gwvldxqwf3wfjvt8x86vlzc4h872csqpv925ewqjg3wpjf5kue6smprq0h

Forgot to say, but you will get a testers-exclusive design if you register now :) nostr:note1gwvldxqwf3wfjvt8x86vlzc4h872csqpv925ewqjg3wpjf5kue6smprq0h

It’s explained in the survey. But it’s a smart card.

You can either use it with NFC or the contact interface.

BIP-39 seeds, BIP-32 xprvs or nsecs are supported.

A PIN code of any length with any characters is used for access control.

Please fill this short survey if you can related to my in development signer, and renote for visibility.

You can also register for testing for early access + a free signer (only shipping) in what I expect to be late 2025 Q1.

and then we manage to pollute the earth’s orbit and make space junk even worse nostr:note15nuc7t5ld5qhjksmayhvsh6pxcxpzlhzf254en0y5mywl42dfp0q0hh6tv

so a /96… wtf? šŸ˜‚

Standard allocation should be /64, no?

Also, reflash if you are suspicious.

Otherwise, I use SeedSigner often and have nothing against it like some of the other HWW vendors… :)

They serve different purposes, where in an HWW the responsibility for seed protection is on the SE, with SS it expects you to protect the seed yourself.

The former is better for carrying wkth you, but the latter works well when you are trying to build a larger multisig affordably (since you need a physical copy either way)

that is different for a different use case with a different threat model

The Brother laser I got has no chips on cartridges, and separate drum is great because it means compatible cartridges are way cheaper

Being able to reset the cartridges very easily in case it still has a bunch left is also great

Epson EcoTank ones are decent… though it is an older one

just don’t leave it unused
