Is a 24 word seed phrase any more secure than a 12 word seed phrase? I’d think technically yes but practically no (assuming it’d be stored in 1 piece either way) If no, why do hardware wallets tend to generate the latter?

If you record the words out of order it does pose a significantly greater challenge to unscramble them if the order is sufficiently subtly implied by how they are stored (I’d share my method as an example, but that would defeat the purpose 🙃)

@greg
makes sense - so basically its only more secure if you do something to the phrase like scramble or split

Yep—tho it might still on net be less secure because more words may make it more likely people do something dangerous like photograph and store it on their phone’s photo app

I am still working out the best way to do that—one person in my family knows the method to decipher it, but the means to locate the specific source they will need to apply it correctly remains a secret only I currently know

Actually it probably would be pretty interesting as a treasure hunt story now that you mention it—wish I could share it unambiguously without compromising it 🫤
