Paper backups are the best option for this. Private keys are simple enough that a whole wallet can be printed to a single piece of paper using an OCR-friendly font.
- robbiepapiere 5y agoI wouldn‘t send it to a printer (and certainly not generate the passphrase on a computer that is connected to the internet). Write by hand, it is only 12 to 24 words.
- jethro_tell 5y agoYou can get a printer without a network port. You can skip the hardware wallet and print the whole key as a qr code or just text in an ocr font. Then there's no chance for hardware failure.
