BitPLATES - Bitcoin Backup

The most non-technical #Bitcoin multi-factor security (128-bit secure)... Split 24 seed words in two, and separate each half. Plate 1 = words 1-12 Plate 2 = words 13-24 Store multiple copies of the plates in separate locations. NEVER store plates 1 and 2 together! 🔑+🔑=🔒

I used to get frustrated by broken systems, but then I read the following quote... "Every system is perfectly designed to get the result that it does" - W. Edwards Deming If we aren't happy with the results of a system, we need to move to a system that gives us better results.

@JM_speakss @nostrnaut The problem with paper is that it degrades slowly in the right environment, and quickly in the wrong environment. 🔥🧯 🌊 ❄️🌞🌧️👶🐶🐹🪳🧪

@nostrnaut @BitPLATES I’ll have the check this out for sure Why not paper? What’s wrong with that

My 36 year old best friend told me I’m dumb for storing my seed phrase on paper. He said I should be memorizing it. I told him that paper is still undefeated because your brain is one bad concussion, stressful year, or 3 glasses of wine away from nuking your entire net worth. What’s the best way to store your seed phrase?

We've decided to finally do it! @BitPLATES are now a #Bitcoin-only retailer. No fiat currencies accepted any longer.

@depbit Dividing 12 words in two is a very bad idea. 💯 It's too easy to work out the remaining 6 words. Dividing 24 words in two can be a good idea, but only if you store them in separate locations AND have multiple backups to prevent catastrophic loss of one half is lost or stolen.

@BitPLATES Dividing the 12 words in two is a bad idea. Anyone says it and in the forums that has already been discussed a lot.

If you're worried about someone discovering your #Bitcoin seed words, then think about removing the single point of failure. 1. Split 24 seed words in two (1-12 + 13-24) or 2. Use seed words + passphrase or 3. Multisig devices/seed words NB. Always store in separate locations.

@willywoo @cryptofergani In reality, the market cap is not the total money invested, it's simply the last price × current total supply of coins. The last trade revalues every coin instantly, and so to double the price in reality, buyers might need hundreds of billions of buying pressure, not trillions.

@cryptofergani You're expecting institutions to put in $3-4T USD in 2026. That's what your price chart implies. $1T has been invested into BTC in the last 17 years. Things move slower once it's a multi trillion dollar asset.

WHY RETAIL IS “NEVER” COMING BACK TO CRYPTO They came in 2021, bought altcoins and NFTs, and got destroyed. They came again in 2025, chased memecoins, and got wrecked again. Now they know crypto is a scam. They moved to stocks because it “feels safer.” So yes… retail is out. Only whales and institutions are here right now. That’s why the market feels slow, flat, and boring. This is the silence before the BOOOOOOM. Most people think retail will NEVER return. But they don’t understand how this market works. Once institutions finish loading… once they start pushing Bitcoin hard… once BTC does a +20% candle out of nowhere… Retail will come back INSTANTLY. They always chase hype. They always chase green candles. They always buy late. We’re not waiting for retail. We’re waiting for the big players to fill their bags. And they’re doing it quietly right now. When they finally hit the switch… Bitcoin will explode… Altcoins will start 10x… 50x… 100x… The whole market will wake up in minutes. This isn’t the end. This is the calm before the chaos. Get ready.

An idea... 🤔 The price of bearer assets (#gold, #silver, #Bitcoin) could be suppressed in the run-up to a CBDC rollout. ie. Discourage most people from buying until it's too late... When the tide turns, it's going to be extremely difficult for those who didn't stack.

@adam3us @willywoo Isn't quantum computing irrelevant if the public key is never revealed? ie. never been spent from a Bitcoin address. Shor’s algorithm can't break ECDSA solving the discrete logarithm problem if the public address is unknown. Am I missing something? Genuine question. 🙏

@willywoo A then insecure signature algorithm is deprecatable via soft-fork. No hard-fork required.

12 YR TREND BROKEN. BTC should be a valued a LOT HIGHER relative to gold. Should be. IT'S NOT. The valuation trend broke down once QUANTUM came into awareness. Don't read this post if you want to stay high on hopium instead of seeing things as they are.

Counterintuitively, this provides more security than most BIP39 passphrases. The remaining 12 words could be up to 2,048^12 possible combinations (128-bit secure). The main disadvantage of this method, is that it relies on the integrity of the seed phrase. bitplates.com/how-secure-is-…

Whenever you're doing anything with #Bitcoin, or talking about Bitcoin, or anything private, or anything else... Put your phone in a Faraday Bag ✅ It could prevent: 1. Leaking your seed words/passwords 2. Sharing private info with spyware 3. Distractions from notifications 👍

Without giving too much away, there are literally hundreds of places to hide 3mm flat metal plates. 😉 #Bitcoin backup
