TRNG im Vergleich zu einem alten Laptop/modernen Computer

werden die Seeds/Schlüssel genauso zufällig & sicher auf einem Gerät wie einem modernen Desktop-Computer oder auf einem alten Pentium-Laptop generiert?

Ein echtes sicheres Element (TRNG) wie bei modernen Hardware-Wallets erzeugt “bessere”, zufälligere Schlüssel/Seeds? Ist die Tatsache, dass Hardware-Wallets im Allgemeinen verwendet werden, um Schlüssel offline und auf dem Gerät zu generieren, der Hauptgrund dafür, dass sie von Natur aus sicherer sind, oder was?

Ich bin an Ihren Erklärungen interessiert

The quality of randomness doesn’t really depend on how old your PC is. With modern enough software (and non-buggy algorithms), there is no meaningful difference between randomness generated on a PC, or with a dedicated TRNG hardware, or with a hardware wallet.

(that is in the general case where you use a hot wallet to make up a recovery seed. the situation is somewhat different in special scenarios like during the boot process)

For the record, Trezor has a TRNG peripheral built into its CPU. And it also adds entropy provided by the host PC.

But the “quality” of seed is not an interesting metric. There is no ordering of wallets by “how good a seed” they produce. The measure is either-or: either the seed generated correctly, or it isn’t. The point of a hardware wallet is to keep the seed off your PC, not to make a better one.

All keys generated on a Laptop/computer should be seen a compromised.
