Subject: [bitcoin-dev] Suggestion to remove word from BIP39 English wordlist
Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2018 11:20:55 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <31430A55-57AD-4648-8D6D-DE2A45CC013C@vandermeer.frl> (raw)
Hello guys,
After reviewing some bitcoin improvement proposals, I noticed that one of the words that can be found on the BIP39 English wordlist is “satoshi”.
I suggest removing this word from the list so it’s less obvious that it’s a bitcoin seed when found by a malicious third party.
Regards,
Ronald van der Meer
