Suggested lesson : BIP-39 Passphrases and plausible deniability

Open CypherJack opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

A more advanced lesson that I would like to have within Padawan is for passphrases. Making users learning that they can have multiple wallets hidden behind a 13th/25th "word" (which should be more complex than a single word for sure). And exploring some plausible deniability scenarios.

Great ideas for advanced lessons man! Thanks for reviewing and thinking about this deeply.

This one I'm actually not super keen on, because I think passphrases have been shown to be super error-prone and be dangerous if not used super carefully. I'm not 100% against having a lesson mention them, but I would need to update my research and opinion about them first (because it's currently quite bad, my opinion of them that is).
