"Air-gapped" and "verified" are two different properties, and people keep conflating them Came up in a thread the other day and i think it's worth writing out, because it changes what you should actually prioritise Air-gapped** **means your signing device has no data connection to your online machine - no USB, no Bluetooth - transactions cross by QR code, SD card or NFC Trusted display means the device has its own screen showing you what you're actually signing, generated by its own firmware These are separate - a device can have either, both, or neither > Why it matters the air-gap stops a compromised computer from attacking your device - it can't exploit a connection that doesn't exist - real benefit; there have been USB stack vulnerabilities in hardware wallets before
