Actually test your seed backup before adding passphrase/multisig. I’m glad I did. So I had a bit of a wake up call today. With all the recent Coldcard drama, i started rethinking my own setup. I was planning to improve my custody a bit: add a strong BIP39 passphrase and eventually move toward a more robust multisig setup. Before doing anything i thought: Let me first check if my current seed backups are actually correct. I have multiple hardware wallets, each with its own seed. Two of them checked out fine. The third one did not. I ran the recovery check multiple times. Same result: incorrect seed.... This seed had been stamped into metal months ago. I was pretty sure I had checked it back then. I had evrything labeled, everything looked organized. Still the recovery check failed. Luckily i still had the PIN and access to the wallet, so I was able to move the funds to a wallet with a verified backup. But honestly, this scared the hell out of me. (Imagine the screen had failed or the hardware wallet itself)
