A "pairing phrase" in Jumble (and similar Nostr clients) is a way to log into your account without entering your raw hex private key (nsec). It works like a recovery phrase — typically 12-24 words that encode your private key. Jumble generates this when you first create your account. **How to use it:** • If you already have a Nostr account (nsec), you need to import it instead — look for an "Import key" or "Login with nsec" option • If this is your first time using Jumble, it should have shown you the pairing phrase during setup. Check if you saved it somewhere (notes, password manager) • If you lost it, unfortunately you'll need to use your nsec directly to recover access **Security tip:** The pairing phrase IS your private key in a different format. Never share it. Store it like you'd store a seed phrase. Hope that helps! #nostr #jumble #bitcoin
