Seed phrase, passphrase and password

Recommended Posts

I will like to let people to also gain from what I have learnt recently about cryptocurrencies, wallet specifically. It is about Seed phrase, passphrase and password. 

 

Seed phrase

This are 12, 15, 18 or 24 words that is generated by wallets after you first opened it, the seed phrase are generated for recovery of the wallet. Anytime you need to recover the wallet like on another device, you can download the wallet and input the seed phrase to get you back the wallet with your cryptocurrencies in it. 

 

Passphrase

Wallet gives the option if passphrase, this ate just like the passwords you choose for yourself, you will be the one to choose what you want. Anytime you want to spend your coins on the wallet, you will need to input the passphrase. 

 

Password

This only applies to your device, the password you use to protect the wallet before it can be accessed. But this does not go beyond your phone. Like if you want to recover the wallet, the password is not needed and not also needed to spend your coins on the wallet.

Yes, exactly, passphrase is optional, if choosing, if someone can have access to your wallet but not able to spend from it because the passphrase will be require to initiate the transaction.

This is a very good write up, but we should know that to every passphrase that new seed will be generated which will also generate new master private key. 

Seed phrase are the BIP39 that makes use of words to be a recovery means for noncustodail wallet.

The explanation is clear. Those terms has been a nightmare for newbies and myself when I was one. 

Seed phrase just like the private keys are required in order to access a wallet and the most important in restoring or recovery of wallets. Passphrase is just another password but phrase needed to access crypto stored in wallets.

Seed phrase is that , if you forget your password, it sends you a password .

The password belongs to the people who are used to login your account. 

The passphrase is a user key which use to open seed phrase

Dear @GanBin seed phrase are the private keys to recover our account.

Passphrase are the phrases to get access to their account that is optional and password are the privacy of your account. So always create strong password and don't share your seed phrases with anyone.

Have a good day 😊

Seed phrase are not private key, but you can use the seed phrase to recover back your wallet while private key can also be used to recover back your wallet. Seed phrase are in words while private key are in characters.

Passphrase is only used to unlock coins as a means of encrypting the seed phrase in which new private key is generated. But this type of encryption is just a seed phrase extension in form of password. You can access seed phrase in a wallet but if the passphrase is set , you will not be able to unlock funds through the wallet.

These all are best techniques to ensure our cryptographic forms of money in the most ideal manner as seed state is the 24 words letter.

 These all are orchestrated in a particular way which are created by the wallet and given to its clients to secure their monetary standards . passphrase is the another waly to secure or resources and pasward id the primary record pasward.

Seed phrase are not necessarily 24 words, they can be 12, 15, 18, 21 or 24 words. The number of words depends on the number of bits of the entropy. Passphrase is not used to secure passwords, it is used to secure cryptocurrencies.

Therefore, its important also to keep each of them safe and secured

 This information is important, as it is the key to accessing your wallet, so you have to save it in a safe place because if you lose it, you will lose balance forever, so save it more than one copy

Nice and easy explanation. If we see the seedphrase, its a Private keys just in word format. And nowadays most wallet provides the seed phrase along with PK which makes users to remeber seed phrase and handle more easily. In among three you mentioned, Seed phrase are most important because we can recover our wallet if we have seed phrase only.

The only differnce between passphrases and paswords are that , password contain no space while passphrases contain spaces and random string of the letter . Passphrases are generally more longer than paswords . Paswords can easily crack while passphrases .

You are wrong, passphrase are just like passwords with letters and numbers, do not mistaken it for aeed phrase. Passwords on wallets are just not beyond the device you are operating the wallet while passphrase are on the wallet itself.

You are not wrong, like if someone even gain access to the seed phrase and know the wallet balance, he will still not be able to send funds on the wallet but he will be able to know the funds stored on the wallet. Passphrase is just like a see phrase extension used to protect the coins stored on wallets.

Thank you for telling us about passphrase, I thought it was see phrase before. But I have know about more now. Red phrase is used for recovering wallet, passphrase is used to protect coins on wallets. I hope that is right?

It is seed phrase @AdCoins135, not red phrase. You are right that seed phrase is used for wallet recovery but used to recover because it can regenerate private key linked to the wallet. Also the private key and the seed phrase can be used to regenerate this. Seed phrase is an seed phrase extension which will make wallet accessable but the coins on it will not be accessable until you input the passphrase.

I am new on this forum.Your research about different kinds of security terms is informative to all new cummers just like me.I will ever keep in my mind these criteria before choosing any wallet.Here I want to ask whether the private keys and Passwords are the same thing or different for any wallet?

@Sillain 5555  Password is the code you will use to access the wallet when you open the wallet, you will need to enter the password. 

 

Seed phrase is used for wallet recovery, like if you lose your wallet, you will use it to generate the wallet again and see all your funds.

 

Passphrase is used by the wallet to make transactions, anytime you want to make transaction, you will need to input the passphrase. And if forgotten, you will not be able to use your wallet to spend again. 

 

Private key is used to unlock bitcoin from blockchain, you will use it to spend bitcoin on blockchain.

This is great, that means if I have a see phrase, I needed to protect it and back it up so I will be able to access my wallet. But unlike password that I can forget and import my see phrase on another device and I can choose another password. This is helpful, I will backup my seed phrase.

Exactly the case, there are many people that will think passphrase are just password and because they have recovered their wallet before with no passphrase generated wallet thinking they can bypass passphrase like password during recovery, but that is not exactly the case.

Like I read, when you want to spend your coin, passphrase is needed provided you enable it, but not needed if not enable. While password is for wallet protection too just like the password used to protect our phones.

    • Сам тоже думаю не садиться в этот поезд, а то пошёл там выполнять их задания в Гелакси и только сбои да сбои, надоело там раз разом крутить кнопку проверки. Почему всё так происходит не пойму, полностью отбили мотивацию.
    • Если их машина по сжиганию будет работать отлично, то и токен будет в будущем расти из-за сокращения его огромного количества. Пока как знаю дела в этом направлении идут не плохо, но рост конечно идут за счёт Битка.
    • Да это уж многих удивило, сам тоже увы не в теме, хотя крос у меня стоил 10$, если был бы 100$, то точно зашёл бы в тему с ремонтом, а там уже каждый день за 20 дайсов мог бы получать по 0.5$ за 20 секунд.  Кстати у вас всё ещё видны ваши кеды ? Их можно ремонтировать 🤔
    • Да, типа это пользователи так сделали, что форум на дне, а ведь с самого начала нужно было понять, что на одной оплата так далеко дело не пойдёт. Нужно было с самого начала работать над качеством пользователей и жёстче бороться с ботоводами, мотивировать на создание топиков, дать возможность размещать реф ссылки во всех разделах форума, в том числе и сокращение ссылки, подключить рекламу к форуму, если так плохо дело с подписанными. И это только начало списка, где всё это можно реализовать, но нет никаких действий очень долгое время.
    • Отлично, что и у вас получилось, теперь можно будет вникать в тему, где как заметил сами их квесты много времени не отнимают, ну кроме проверки. Сделал всё, оставил на час или вообще зайдёшь завтра и уже можно минтить поинты.
    • Если так будет, то шансов на успех скорее всего будет не многовато, когда рынок может пойти на дно и даже Лаунчпад на Бинансе особо то не сможет помочь проекту. Хотя будет надеяться на то что всё пройдёт хорошо и после халвинга не будет сильный спад рынка.
    • Из-за чего про них будут помнить ещё несколько сотен тысяч пользователей, которых они не хило кинули. А всё могло быть иначе, если разработчики распределились с дропом получше как и вообще самим листингом токена.
