## SpecterDIY single seed multi-location backup scheme
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.
