The story

Behind the This Year I Will Back Up My Seed tee

Every January, someone resolves to get organized, and bitcoiners have a resolution of their own. This tee puts a clipboard on the chest with three check boxes, one ticked, and a line about the backup they keep promising to make.

A seed backup, also called a recovery phrase, is the written list of words that can restore a bitcoin wallet. The shirt pokes fun at the New Year's habit of promising to get organized and then not quite getting around to it. New Year's Day falls on Friday, January 1, 2027, so the joke is ready for the first morning of the year. It does not explain how to store a backup and makes no claim about security. Treat it as a New Year's grin, not a checklist.

New Year's Day, a January planning meeting or the first bitcoin meetup of the year is the right moment for this one. It announces a resolution without reading out the whole list, and friends will know exactly which box still needs ticking.

Questions

About this design

What is a seed backup, in plain words?

It is the list of words that can restore a wallet. The words are the backup, so whoever holds them can access what they protect. The shirt only jokes about the job of making one. For the actual steps, use your wallet's own instructions rather than a t-shirt.

Is the clipboard a checklist I should follow?

No, it is a joke, not a checklist. The shirt has no steps, no instructions and no advice on where to keep anything. It is three boxes and a tick, which is about as much planning as a New Year's resolution usually gets. Make your own backup plan on your own schedule.

What is the gift angle for this shirt?

It works as a light gift for a friend who loves to joke about good intentions, whether or not they hold any bitcoin. The clipboard reads as a resolution to anyone, and the bitcoin reference adds a second layer for those who know it.
