Last night I stayed up until 2 a.m. analyzing my wallet structure again, and the more I looked, the more I felt: with different asset sizes, security solutions really aren't better the more complicated they are. For the small amount of money I experiment with, I just use a hardware wallet plus paper backup, and I accept losing it; but if it’s at a level where I can’t afford to lose it, multi-signature is more appealing, even if the keys are stored separately, at least I won’t lose everything with a shaky hand.
I'm actually quite conflicted about social recovery; it’s really convenient, but to be honest, you also have to trust the person/mechanism, which is suitable for those who often travel or are worried about losing their seed phrases.
Recently, before and after the main chain upgrade, everyone has been guessing whether projects will migrate; I’ve instead focused on sorting out permissions and backups, so I don’t end up signing randomly in a panic…
That’s it for now, anyway if I lose money, I’ll just write a post-mortem.
