After reviewing this and considering that even Linux has substantial exploits, I believe this release of documents screams to make sure you have a hardware wallet. You do NOT have to break the blockchain IF you can exploit the operating system and watch what the user is doing. A good hardware wallet never reveals keys, true PINS, etc... even to the operating system it is connected to. Only a full break of BTC would render a quality hardware wallet as ineffective. All other solutions that ever connect online in any way could be suspect. This is not a scare tactic, just a very logical extension of what today's leak of info suggests. While older archive paper wallets are secure, the question now becomes how do you someday spend/move those coins? It is likely the two computer model - hot and cold - wallets would still hold up, hopefully. I can't know the extent of these exploits yet.

Windows should die and linux should be sold on all customer level computers since Trump has become president it just shows how over the last 8 years under the "Obama customer care" he has provided to the United States of America and how he has stolen everybody's privacy in the form of email/phone calls/geo cached locations having all be logged of every citizen of the U.S.A under the name of so called "National Security" for the greatest nation of the civilized world!

I wonder how closely "Cloudbleed" and these "Vault 7" exploits are linked with each other. We have had two major security issues within a couple of weeks. This is not good for 3rd party systems linked to Bitcoin. The Open source systems would be fine, because these systems are constantly under Peer review and holes will be identified quickly, but most of these systems runs on hardware with built in proprietary software in the firmware that may be exploited.
We live in a scary world, where we have zero control over our lives. ^grrrrrrrr^

Since the advent of states, about 5000 years ago, we never had. But only rarely we realized this. And the few people realizing it were then "enemies of the state" (witches, communists, terrorists, .... name them, each epoch has its favourite enemy of state name).

nothing bigger than the ssl bug remember the heartbleed? it was said to be in there since many years and no one notice it until 2015 i believe
the world is full of hackers that will use whatever tool they need to scam innocent, they also make their own malware that can not be detected by antivirus and similar
and then we have win 10 which is already a risky environment, holding big amount of coin this OS can open the door for future stealing without the user noticing
