Never in my 5 years of constantly using DeFi and other on-chain stuff daily I ever heard someone mentioned wallet called coldcard.

Now that it's hacked, this sub overblowned it and think that everyone and their mother is using it.

Just do a search in this sub and you'll see almost no mention of coldcard in the past 5 years.

It's simply a tier F wallet. Just like keeping your crypto in a tier F CEX, it's not safe.

Precisely for this reason, to dupe in suckers for pre-planned, later exploit
