It's hard for me to meaningfully distinguish the advantage of this v. e.g
1) "half" is six words you memorize
2) "other half" is a long annoying non-memorizable string that must be written down?
Am I missing something?
- andirk 4y agoI am also confused on that and I am fine with writing things down. What are we trying to solve here? Half the key phrase in one place, half in another if we want extra security.
- microchad 4y agoWriting down seed phrases exposes them to an evil maid (or border guard) attack. Border Wallets offers a new way of storing, memorising and transporting Bitcoin seed phrases for people who: - have difficulty/concerns with securely caching physical seed backups (evil maid attack) - want to memorise their seed words but struggle to do so (e.g. the 15% of the global population who are dyslexic) - want to carry their seed words with them at all times - have limited access to trusted 3rd parties - live in areas of conflict, war zones, etc. - regularly travel or move around - have no permanent fixed abode. https://www.borderwallets.com/docs https://www.borderwallets.com/docs
