Hello,

Seedphrase storage is a real HOT topic.
While the HW market leader (aka Ledger) keeps asking its users to write down a sheet of paper their 24 words, I think it's a BAD PRACTICE and a non sense.
Rules should be: never write down a sheet of paper your seedphrase and never in plain text.

Take a look at Seedkeeper : https://seedkeeper.io
It's a chipcard equiped with a secure element designed to store your seedphrase securerly.

Access to the chip memory (where is encrypted the seedphrase) is protected by a PIN code (from 4 to 16 chars).

Last but not least, this solution is fully open-source and affordable. You can get multiple chipcard for multiple backup.

What do you recommend as the most secure way to store my seed phrase? Are there any tips or best practices I should know about to ensure it stays safe and doesn't get lost or stolen?



Split you SEED into m parts by using one of n-of-m SSSS scenarios, say 2 of 3 minimum, 3 of 4 better security but more money to spend, and so on.

Put each part separately into tamper-evident bag.

Choose m private safekeeping companies which are not overlapping with each other and located preferably in different geographical areas.

Place your m tamper-evident bags into m secure boxes provided by those companies. Each single  box must hold one tamper-evident bag.

SEED security by your money.

I’m seriously consider this solution, can you answer my questions about it:
Is there a way to get the seed phrase fully airgapped on the card and also fully airgapped read the seed again?
What will happen if I need to read my seed in 20 years from now? Do I need a specialized program for that that may not be available on future hardware?
