How smart is a smartphone? Apparently, very! As it can predict a user's seed phrase. Luckily, a Redditor discovered that this could happen and decided to warn the crypto world.
Seed phrases, a random combination of words from the Bitcoin Improvement Protocol 39 list of 2048 words, act as one of the primary layers of security against unauthorized access to a user’s crypto holdings.
“This makes it easy to attack, get your hands on a phone, start any chat app, and start typing any words off the BIP39 list, and see what the phone suggests.” As a tech-savvy individual, the German crypto investor was able to reproduce the scenario wherein his mobile phone could accurately predict the seed phrases. After realizing the possible impact of this information if it went out to the wrong hands, “I thought I should tell people about it. I’m sure there are others who also have typed seeds into their phone.”
