Part 10/14:
A core value across the panel was open-source development and interoperability. Douglas stressed that as an open-source manufacturer, BitBox aims to build accountability and trust, enabling users to verify hardware designs and even reproduce devices independently.
Bastian echoed this, advocating for hardware reproducibility to reduce dependence on any single manufacturer, strengthening the decentralization ethos of Bitcoin. He mentioned potential future collaborations where hardware wallets could serve as part of multi-signature schemes or quorum setups, further promoting security and resilience.
