I will add one as well -

Quite frankly I don’t like ink generated or engraved keys period (not saying they aren’t viable in cases). The one maker who’s been ahead of most everyone (and really everyone period) since day one is Kialara. Not just to speak well of a good friend, but we’ve had so many convos around this subject and I know how much thought and care goes in to every aspect of his wallets. More than “most” any maker, that’s for sure.

Would you rather have a tiny piece of paper with ink, or something like this (protected by glass to boot)

Kialara also understands the importance of self custody, which is what Bitcoin is all about mind you, and created a DIY system that doesn’t give up the “pretty” (we all love the look of holograms)

“ Kialara Guardians introduces a fresh perspective on the concept of self-custody. The innovative design offers individuals the chance to encapsulate their personal public and private key pair or seed phrase within a captivating 2.5″ diameter artwork. This is made possible by an exclusive braille-inspired code system crafted specifically for this purpose.
In this scenario, users are empowered to seize control of their private keys, emphasizing the vital responsibility that accompanies our progressive shift into the blockchain era. By eliminating the requirement for a printer, the system ensures all the security that can only be provided by a fully manual process once keys or seeds have been generated. This immersive hands-on approach fosters a profound connection between users and their individual hard-wallets, establishing a tangible bond of trust and ownership.”

I’ll pose a question for everyone I once asked in a topic ..why are most the OG collectors gone (or don’t collect much new stuff, like myself ?) The answer is because they don’t trust new coin makers, and already have collections with enough “at risk” bitcoin, and don’t want to take more risk on than they already are. This is simply the reality of it.

If you make coins, adapt, progress, and make this hobby better. As long as there’s people buying new funded items, the hobby will lose collectors steadily, especially with each coin scam/rug/breach (which includes coins many don’t even realize already like Lealana and Sol Noctis..both of which have had funding issues and were NEVER addressed publicly by the coin makers , despite being asked to do so). New funded coins being sold means more scams to come. Period. And it will never stop (LLCs and lack of government oversight/willingness to help ..will ensure this hobby will be ripe with scams on a continuous basis if things continue on as they have.

Things are worse than most realize too.
