I haven't come across a wallet in recent times that hasn't forced me to record and reenter the seed. It has also made it very, very clear what happens if I lose the seed.
Can't really think of much more they can do. If you don't pay attention then balls to you.
There are actually many wallets that let you skip that step
at your own risk. I've skipped the step many times on different apps and then had the constant fear whether I've written down my seeds or not. Up to this day, I'm still not sure whether I have the seeds for all of my wallets written down. It's scary.. The writing down part should be mandatory..
However, this case is different and has no link to a Bitcoin flaw or anything else except his own mistake. Peter
doesn't know how Bitcoin works. Peter's wallet
was set up by Erik Voorhees but
he did not save his phrase. The worst thing he could've done was blaming Bitcoin for his mistake. This just shows how much he really knows about Bitcoin at all.
Let's not also mention the fact that he was holding his funds on Blockchain Wallet, and there have been plenty of stories from people who've had the same issue as him. Although they state they
"don't have access to your wallet or your wallet password", holding funds on a server-sided wallet is a risk one has to assume. But because Peter hasn't used Bitcoin, his statements hold no value in my eyes.
We know Peter Schiff hates Bitcoin, so why would he buy bitcoins in the first place? Also, if you hate something, you will do some research and talk to a lot of people to find ways to criticize it.
