Steve Jobs once announced that iTunes’ much used shuffle feature would be made less random as true randomness often clustered, by chance, into consistency. If a bitcoin mnemonic phrase is seeded from a very random (high entropy) source it should be safe however it could, by chance, result in a very low entropy phrase like a grammatically accurate sentence or a pattern (bacon cheese bacon cheese bacon cheese bacon cheese bacon cheese bacon cheese), etc. There are many automatons loaded with such seeds, continuously scanning new blocks to find coins locked to keys derived from such seed phrases. They assume people will make their own, more easily memorised phrases and send coins to them. So, if a randomly generated phrase looks a bit too human, perhaps generate another. (The chance of this happening is very low).
BIG DAY FOR ME. I received my first ever zap ⚡️ which is ♾️% more than I earned on Twitter. I booted up my first bitaxe. These are the first time current(ish) generation chips have been available in small form factor for years. Shall I run it solo in lottery mode or contributing work to a pool?
Signals a bit too high on nostr, needs more noise. Who shall I follow?
