Which hardware wallet is safest after the Coldcard incident, and for whom?

Devices are scored on a separate rubric: entropy, firmware, supply chain, disclosure conduct, interoperability, privacy. It depends on what the holding has to survive: a single point of failure can be excellent at everything else and still lose everything at once, so read that column first, then the fees against your size.
