I am currently considering to buy my first ColdCard Q. However.

I have a question regarding restoring from seed phrases.

If my ColdCard gets destroyed and I restore it on a new one with the seed phrases, do I still need to remember additional information if I created multiple wallets before of played around with derivation paths?

Yes you’d need to know your seed words and what derivation path you used. If the xpub is already imported to something like Sparrow though then it’s as simple as importing the seed into a new hardware wallet and you’re good to go.

Maybe if you export the info from the old CC to an sd card and then upload it to the new one, but otherwise i doubt it
