interesting. I know Blockstream Jade has guides for building your own from parts. I've never used Jade but from what I understand it works a bit differently in that you need some kind of external server to validate the PIN and decrypt the keys (you can use theirs or run your own). basically built-in two factor.

Was considering that option, but really an old laptop running Linux + the most popular open source wallet might be the most trustworthy choice. The more popular an open source project the more likely bugs or security flaws will be caught. Niche projects like Trezor might be open source but how many devs are working on it versus, say, Bitcoin Core or Electrum?

in any case Ledger is probably the least trustworthy out of the popular hardware wallets. Closed source firmware, black box hardware. if you use one you had better at least generate your own keys and not let the pre-installed software do it
