+## SeedXOR multi-location backup scheme
+Full documentation: [seedxor.com/](https://seedxor.com/)
+
+Existig seeds can be broken up with seedXOR or can be used as components of a new a scheme.
+If there was a BIP39 passphase used keep a copy of the passphrase on every location.
+
+Currently the scheme can be used on a [ColdCard](https://github.com/Coldcard/firmware/blob/master/docs/seed-xor.md) and is planned to be implemented in [SeedSigner](https://github.com/SeedSigner/seedsigner/issues/43).
+The seed can also be calculated manually so the ColdCard is not strictly necessary for recovery

+The smartcard reader is part of the Specter Shield ([out of stock currently](https://specter.solutions/shop/)) or can be used as a USB extension.
+
+Do not encrypt the secret on the smartcard to be able to restore in any other SpecterDIY device.
+Use a long PIN for the smartcard. 8 or more digits are recommended.
