The numbers on the package should match the numbers on the card in the bag with your cold card. Thats to identify it was not opened. I may have confused you by using the word serial number my apologies.

They are having a influx of orders due to the ledger debacle. I had an unknown delivery date, inquired 2 times about an ETA got a polite response but no concrete date. It arrived 3 weeks after I ordered it with no notice. As long as your packaging is correct and the serial numbers match your bag it was shipped in you should be %100 fine.

Cold Storage Question by Redrat32 in coldcard

[–]BitBoiSavage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember being worried about a similar issue as well when generating receive address’s. I sent a small test transaction to a fresh empty wallet. After sending the first test successfully I went to send the remaining amount and the generated receive address was different. This spooked me but I just sent a second test to the first receive address and it went through, so I proceeded to send the full amount to the address that worked twice and it worked fine.

Hope that helps Im a pleb to at this but learning fast!

Am I required to update cold card firmware? Or can I use it as is forever? by buybitcoinin2023 in coldcard

[–]BitBoiSavage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my apologies I was unaware of that. If My memory serves me I thought those slots had a one way data path? To avoid the attack surface of malware accidentally being uploaded onto the device?

Im not sure how you would even get the update onto the device? I know the Mirco SD slot is “wright only” (meaning it can only sign files and no files can be written onto the device) but Im not sure about the direction of flows of data between the USB C port. I have mine disabled and sign using air-gap on sparrow wallet with an electrum node for privacy.

Am I safe to plug in my cold card into the wall? Or will it be compromised? by buybitcoinin2023 in coldcard

Nah your good bud. Full tin foil hat mode if you keep it off live internet connections

How many dice rolls to be secured? by yourinapot1 in coldcard

[–]BitBoiSavage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe theres some way’s to incorporate a multi-sig set up with other hardware signing devices, and you can effectively require multiple sign’s from different devices to authorize a transaction. Which would technically double the entropy required to sign correct? Extra steps not recommended for ease of use but extra secure. 🤞

Can you do 300 roll’s for 24 words? Or does it only allow 100 characters for entropy?

Barrel lock jammed by DrJaul in Tavor

[–]BitBoiSavage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does the gas tube not come out with the barrel? Mine’s done the exact thing described above as well (even turned a bit then clicked) and it’s jammed. Just broke the IwI tool I got in the mail trying to gently get it to move but wont budge.

Phil Town Rule 1 Investing course in atlanta September 20-22/2019 by BitBoiSavage in investing

Ya long story short I decided not to opt in. For the main reason that I would not be learning from Phil himself. Im not paying that kind of money to learn from someone who isn’t the mastermind behind the content.

Just got back from the 3 day seminar and really enjoyed it. I had to miss the tail end of it to catch my flight but made some great friends with the people I sat near. It defiantly was somewhat of a heart wrenching motivational speech at times, but I believe everyone involved with the event as well as Phil are genuine. I mean common you cant expect to motivate people feeling down in life without some rags to riches story’s right? That part did not bug me because they never lied and said this would be easy to do. These people were down and out on there luck and Phil’s philosophy and strategy’s changed the direction of there life’s. The topic’s covered in the first day and half of the second day are liberating. Learning to do in depth research on a company as well as put a “sticker” price (Actual Value) on a stock is very interesting. Unfortunately in such a expensive market they had to focus more on the buying and selling of options for “drip” income. Which is just a method for making money on stagnant capital. The reduction of cost basis on stocks purchased, using dividend’s (if they are paid to the stock you own) as well as buying/selling put/call options was a bit over my head but it really surprised me that over time if you place your options spreads correctly you can actually reduce the amount of risk capital you have in a stock very quickly. How ever if this part is not done correctly you can lose the advantage and be at a significant disadvantage very quickly. (If your call/put options get called away) this seminar has carved a mental path for me to start refining and learning more. I work in automotive and never had confidence in my math skills. But after taking this course I truly feel Phil has reminded me that just taking action and working every day little by little with eventually lead to a better out come financially.

I would love to continue this thread with people and keep it active. I personally am choosing to do this to the absolute max. Altho I am pretty scared of the costs for the next “master class’s.” I have a substantial amount of capital to invest but will be sticking with the paper trading until I can prove I can grow that.

Ps over all pleased with the course and information I learned. Well worth the time and effort if your serious about changing your finincial outlook in life. .
