PIN Protection: Prevents unauthorized access by requiring a secure PIN code to unlock the device.
Passphrase Support: Offers an additional security layer by enabling an optional passphrase that acts as a 25th recovery word, creating hidden wallets.
Open Source Firmware: The code is publicly auditable, increasing transparency and security through community oversight.
Physical Confirmation: Transactions must be manually confirmed on the device screen, preventing remote manipulation.
