I will check out ColdCard again, thanks! Last I checked they were Bitcoin-only. edit: still bitcoin-only

Seems like Trezor "blinked" here and tried to keep everyone happy. I wonder if Block/Square is going to eat Trezor's lunch by providing a badass wallet for people that don't care about KYC. And then ColdCard will be for users that are strictly anti-KYC. And Trezor gets stuck in the middle and goes out of business.

I'm Bitcoin only as well, and Block/Square hardware wallet will be the same, so it probably won't be good for you either.

There are lots of features in Bitcoin that are important and not addressed by mixed wallets because of the lack of development time, so these two types of wallets are getting separated by the market (which I see as a good thing both for Bitcoiners and mixed-coiners).

Appreciate the thoughtful reply! I'm biased towards specialization myself. With that in mind, I'm jazzed to see different species of hardware wallets proliferate. Any good sites tracking all the different types?

edit: thanks!

I can't reply to you because of the depth limit of HN, but generally Jameson Lopp does extremely serious testing of hardware wallets (blog.lopp.net)
