You can represent them as seed words, but that's neither BIP39 nor NIP06.

The other issue is that if we have two seed word methods, people wouldn't know which one is which.

Okay, I'll look at the specs to see what the missing step is then. That's fine.

From binary representation to base58 should give a significant shortening of the key. But I'm not sure you're really looking for an alternative representation. The pairing you showed is okay to make it easy to copy by pencil. I'm guessing that's what you're aiming for.

yea but if your ASCII matrix isn't crossreferenced with your retro encabulator the key won't conjoin with the panametric fan. clearly risking a 256 bit singularity. I wish you idiots would think before you post.

It's not as complicated as it seems. Sometimes raw bytes are transformed into alphabetic characters to make them easy to communicate, possibly with a small checking value included to prevent typos. But some texts are more convenient to work with on screen, and others to write down.

Then there are the many flavors of transformation.

I follow you. And I am tangentially aware of what your talking about. My joke was more about the ease and expertise with which you are both conversing about it. And how it sounds to an outsider. a gift I have that many lack is knowing what I don't know but grasping the fringes of a topic. The gift I often lack is the perseverance to learn more haha. Nothing a little adderall won't fix.

This is how I feel trying to follow this
