Best Bitcoin Hardware Wallet? Anonymous 08/31/25(Sun)05:03:47 No.106441066

I don't like the fact that Blockstream Jade rests on a remote server and only has a “virtual” Secure Element.

That leaves the Trezor Safe 3 (Bitcoin Only firmware) and the Coldard Q.

Advantages of Trezor Safe 3:
Easy to use
Intuitive suite
Secure
Firmware written in C
Open Source
Cheap

Weaknesses:
The company manages shitcoins
Bitcoin Only firmware starts from the universal base and disables the rest
Could be hackable (but with high capital and expertise https://www.ledger.com/why-secure-elements-make-a-crucial-difference-to-hardware-wallet-security )

Advantages of Coldcard Q:
Everyone says it's the most secure
Airgapped (even tho it seems to be mostly marketing hype https://blog.bitbox.swiss/en/does-airgap-make-bitcoin-hardware-wallets-more-secure/#reality-check-would-airgap-have-saved-you-from-any-hardware-wallet-exploit-since-2020 )
Double SE
Really Bitcoin only

Flaws:
Quite hard to use
Easy to do a costly mistake
Mess of features
No dedicated suite
Not Open Source
Firmware written in micropython (unsafe?)
Really expensive for what it is

Thoughts?

>just use an offline laptop bruh
No, and you're a retard if you think it's safer
