@DzambhalaHODL: All life on earth owes its existence to sunlight yet we are told to avoid it Should we really be hiding from the sun, or is the sun...

hello #nostr, here goes another #bitcoin bounty. Whatever I think is best answer gets 20.000 sats zap directly today. Let me know why this is a bad idea: Let's say I want to create a digital recovery of my wallet, in case physical backup is lost, found or destroyed. Here is a setup I came up with: 0. Create a single sig BIP39 Mnemonic (24 words) with a Passphrase (strong, +12 characters & mixed ) 1. Write on paper. Separate into two parts (e.g. 11 / 13 words) 2. Encrypt each of the two parts with AES-256 encryption, using your Passphrase as key to decrypt (like Samurai wallet did) *Method: Write from paper into an encryption tool separately each of the two and do it offline on a open source encryption app, then erase it completely afterwards before you go online with that device. 3. Store each of the encrypted parts separately in four or more different email clients /clouds /chats, but never leave the two of them on a single client. I thought of clients that use strong encryption as a 2nd layer of protection, like tutanota, protonmail,, element, session, signal ... why 4 or more? well if you are not trusting that any of these centralized company servers will live forever then you better diversify the risk of being locked out of your files forever. You could also store them locally, but that just defeats the purpose of them being globally accessible, not relying on a physical location or material that can be damaged/destroyed/found by unwanted. Thanks to all for your time. Its fun to fantasize. My authism runs strong these days lol so I wanted to get a good counterpoint to my assumption. This is a problem I thought about alot

ok I got a #bitcoin bounty, I'll zap directly 10.000 sats to the first best answer to this question: When you create a wallet of, lets say 12 word seed, and ad a passphrase to it, what happens really in the background? I'm not a programmer, but I'd like to see the real thing in the workings when this happens, if you know what I mean. I know that you create a whole new wallet by adding the passphrase, but what happens with the code? what does the Bitcoin software do when one generates a seed + passphrase. the answer can also be a good explanatory video or article. Thanks for your time ! Btw you can verify my history that I always pay when promised

ok lets start using #nostr for real now! I've been addicted to twitter for the last year & I finally woke up to the fact after being banned for a day by the algo for "suspicious activity" and/or "spamming", when in reality I was denouncing spam from some shitcoiner bot accounts that crowded my posts. same as with #bitcoin, you have to get burned on the stove to wake up & move your ass. Also, twitter is crowded by wannabe influencers & that feels like less signal

hey #bitcoin community a friend is constantly giving me sh*t bc of quantum computers being able to crack a bitcoin seed and I can't explain this technically. So, I want to create a 100k prize to the best answer to beat this debate. You can get this by zap or directly to your lightning or onchain wallet ! Thanks to all for reading
