Hardware Wallets: Finding the Balance With Security, Decentralization, and Convenience
summary
Panel argues the hardware wallet wars are over and collaboration wins: companies commit to open standards and interoperable features. Expect NFC smart cards that sign with a single tap, devices with onboard screens that show address and a high-fee alert, and options for seedless multi-sig plus social recovery and microSD/NFC backups. Built demos include a screened passport device, PVC smart-card signer, and a seedless recovery service with an emergency exit kit; all claim practical interoperability with Sparrow/Electrum.
