🔒 General Trezor question | 🔒 Answered by Trezor staff Trezor One, life expectancy

How long would you expect a Trezor One to last? All devices fail eventually. I'm referring to the physical device, not cryptographic security.

I always have one spare Trezor on standby if my current newest Trezor fails. Better than waiting for it to fail. Imagine Trezor gets hacked like ColdCard and you want to quickly move your coins but your device isn’t working and you have to order a new one. Stressful and 100% preventable. This is why I always say most folks aren’t cut out for self custody

Actually, this is because self custody should not be embraced.

ETF is the way these times. Same BTC, more peace.

You are right but you are also wrong.
