#asknostr
Imagine you have a hardware wallet with no passphrase, and it holds existing funds. Then you add a passphrase. Is the following correct?
1. The passphrase wallet will be new and empty
2. The original wallet still exists with all funds, and can be accessed by leaving the passphrase field blank (in Sparrow, or whatever watching wallet) when opening the wallet.
3. You can create a passphrase in your watching wallet without needing to reconnect the HWW, assuming you have previously imported the xpub.
Thanks in advance 🙏
