Hi everyone, just some time ago i discovered somebody could randomly generate seed phrase and checks funds until eventually get to one wallet with funds. ( I know the chances are close to 0) But after this i just got serious about getting a hardware wallet but still have some doubts that i couldn’t get exactly answered after searching om internet:
- Could the seed phrase in my wallet still get randomly generated and check balance from blockchain explorers?¿would the passphrase avoid my funds to get seen and used?
- as for the passphrase would also avoid my funds getting drained if someone finds my seed phrase?
- I was thinking on getting model T, but I saw it generates 12 words phrase instead of 24 so I would go with the model one.
Don’t like the idea of thinking that somewhere some guys might be “mining” seed phrases until they get one with funds so I rather to be extra safe with a 24 words one.( you can debunk this if i’m wrong)
