Oh oh! While I love the term used by #[0] “brainwallet”, it seems now that even memorizing 12 words is not enough to keep your Bitcoin safe from nefarious actors! You’ll have to kill me to get my words!
Zap! A wonderful word zap. Only bitcoiners can take a scary word,zap and make it love. I used to be afraid of getting zapped. Static bed sheets, balloon on your head, 120v power panel that just won’t friggen work anymore… now zaps are fun. GN nostr!
HA! Thanks to #[0] , #[1] and #[2], the orange pill I swallowed has made me feel proud that I know something Hollywood doesn’t… not your keys, not your coin!
“The company you keep”, a new show my wife and I just started watching, has a pilot where the stage is set for a crime family who does large heists for loot, steals “crypto” from a crime boss by stealing his cold wallet during a fake raid. mean while an inside actor in turn steals the cold wallet device from them! Everyone is pissed and the wallet is now long gone with millions in crypto with it.
I laughed and tried to explain to my wife, “not your keys, not your coin.” This family is upset because they had a “cold wallet device” stolen from them, yet they never had the money to begin with, because they don’t know what the seed is. All they have is a piece of useless hardware!
So now I’m seeing holes in the rest of the plot. God I love this community for sharing and educating me!
