Love ZachXBT's detective work, but of course I kindly disagree here 🙃. A dedicated iPhone is an interesting hot wallet upgrade, but it's still a general-purpose device. And assuming everyone can execute this setup really well is a big generalisation. Why an iPhone can't replace a Trezor: Too many targets: Phones run complex code with many entry points. Zero-click exploits are documented reality. Screens can lie: One device is one trust domain. If the phone is compromised, nothing independent verifies what you're signing. A HWW is that second screen. Risky key creation: Generating recovery words on a phone risks iCloud backups, synced screenshots, and clipboard leaks. No blind trust: iOS is a closed black box. You can't verify what you can't see. Batteries die: Leave an iPhone in a location for an extended period and the battery degrades or swells, reviving it needs Apple's activation servers and an Apple ID. We are not all Ledger: I get the frustration with their update choices, but don't lump us all together. Many brands build for architectural stability. Yes the experience still needs to improve and the entire industry is working hard on that, but I believe the best key safety is with purpose-built hardware! 🛡️

ZachXBT Says Hardware Wallets Are “Garbage,” With Ledger the Worst ZachXBT, one of the crypto industry’s most prominent onchain investigators, said he does not consider current hardware wallets suitable for signing critical transactions or storing large amounts of assets, arguing that a dedicated iPhone used solely for crypto management may be a better option. He singled out Ledger, one of the world’s largest hardware wallet makers, saying frequent Ledger Live updates often disrupt basic functionality.
