Another day, another group of people learning about how to properly store their seed phrase. Unless you want to lose your funds or keep them at risk all the time, store it offline, don't use online services to keep your keys, don't take ease of use over safety or pay the price big time

A question: the seed phrase is specific for the wallet I’m using or is universal? I mean if I have a wallet with electrum can I restore my wallet with an other client such as green, for example? Thank you

Before restoring your BIP39 seed phrase on a different device or wallet software, make sure you know what the original derivation path is, or there’s a good chance the wallet will appear to have a zero balance.

You can check here to figure out which one to use. (Website made by nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8, creator of the Coldcard.)
