Yes, exactly. There is a spot indicated on the note to cut it. This "tampers" the associated chip which can be reported back to us so that we release the encryption key to decrypt the local key.

Regular people too! The UX of our app will simplify a big part of this by indicating to folks the state of a note and their options with respect to claiming Bitcoin.
- meltedcapacitor 4y agoCan one "glue it back" after "cutting" it, sell it to a mug, and double spend it before they notice?
