Reading about people switching to Treznor, but why is that any more secure—seems like malicious firmware can reveal private key on any hardware device?
I’m checking out Specter Desktop in my Raspiblitz Lightning node for BTC. The node runs Core as well, but the UI is much nicer in Specter, which is for Multi Sig transactions using any hardware wallet. Doesn’t help with any other coin, though. First Pi project ever, and it’s for science… BTC isn’t my favorite crypto, but it deserves respect. I need to see for myself the scaling possibilities of Lightning first hand. You earn small fees for routing so it should at least break even on power. https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz
