It is just a list without any more info or context. Do people find these things useful? I get the impression it's just a lot of bitching on how important soft skills are without any good technical content. "Go for func" is th

Store your private key on a paper wallet all you want, but what are you going to do during a tiger kidnapping? People look at me weird when I bring this up, but know nothing about real security. I could advice some ISO certified procedures
