BIP39 writing prompt (for mnemonic retention)
With Christmas coming around and the bull market upon us, I thought it would be a good time to remind everyone one about the art of mnemonic memorization. The idea is you take a BIP39 seed, then make a poem, story, limerick, or song using the words to help you remember. If you gift bitcoin, you can include the writing with the seed-card you provide to help the recipient remember as well. If you want to play along, go to Ian's BIP39 page and generate a valid seed mnemonic then see if you can't create a blurb of text that includes all the words.

Give people something to link to so they can talk about your features and ideas
You got me curious- so I looked into this. Its called BIP39[1]. I made a quick proof of concept to generate 6 word phrases from a youtube url using the same wordlist[2]

Need help understading BIP39
Yes. BIP39 defines a check word to ensure the previous words are correct. You can read the spec here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039.mediawiki

What happens if I lose my cold card device?
ColdCard follows the BIP-39 standard for encoding the wallet's seed as a series of 24 words (a.k.a. "seed menmonic", sometimes called a recovery phrase). If you followed the instructions you were given when initializing it and you've stored your seed mnemonic safely in the real world (not digitally where it can be more easily discovered), you're fine. In the event you lose or damage your ColdCard, you can initialize a new wallet--ANY wallet that follows the BIP-39 standard, which is pretty universal these days--and the wallet will regenerate the same private keysthat your original ColdCard did, in the same order.

... and BIP-39

Can the private key of a 24 word seed + passphrase be the same as of a different 24 word seed without passphrase?
Look-up "BIP32", "BIP39" and "BIP44", those will point you to documents describing precisely how seed phrases are converted into crypto keys.

is there a way to programmatically generate a wallet from a 12 word seed phrase that would give the same result in metamask?
i think bip39 is what you want to look up.

Is my maths correct?
