I feel terrible for what happened (is happening) to the bitcoiners who had funds in a Coldcard hardware wallet. If anyone is wondering...Bitcoin, the system or the protocol, is fine. There was a goof in the way the Coldcard device randomized private keys - they weren't as random as they should have been. So, not a bitcoin issue, but a Coldcard device issue.
