I dont understand all the faffing about keeping private personal stuff, private and secure.
I bought £75 in bitcoin in 2016 for my VPN, when we in the UK were still able to buy bitcoin from Bitcoin ATM's. I now have about £800 in bitcoin. I'm not bothered aout the the bitcoin
Until the government banned them. Its not funny when a government takes your freedoms away.
Anyway, back on topic.
all my bitcoin keys and other personal stuff, the stuff that my family will need when I die, is saved on encrypted USB drives. the password and instructions are kept with my will at the solicitors.
I encrypt my drives using openssl like this:
openssl passwd -6 -salt "salt password" "main password"
openssl passwd -6 -salt iloveHN iloveeveryoneinmyfamily
-6 = SHA512
$6$iloveHN$bbyV6w4JfwmXT6EJsKyd2NOT6mV4xTRU6rzHJplkofBOy3BapBB6gIGmyfniTReBnl30JjGi5nBPrpyoq7jWv.
not my password by the way;
I use that password to encrypt my drives with veracrypt.
I have a few of those kept at family members homes. if one gets lost there are others.
it is always a matter of trust for me. I simple do not trust other people to keep my private stuff safe.
