How to make your Bitcoin password UNguessable
Every single bit of the seed phrase is randomly generated by a random number generator. And then changed individually with 50% coin toss probability.

1. @npub1j0dmd45txkz8v4deca4t3w6gge7rqlde8tc7tvwywt8q06n5epqqyclwm0 The Hardware Wallet for Bitcoiners.
Let’s take a look at why the Specter DIY is so secure and the incredible advantages this device offers.👇

2. Unlike many commercial wallets, it's built from OFF-THE-SHELF COMPONENTS. Anyone can get one without providing personal data or needing a specific store. Even if Bitcoin hardware is banned in a totalitarian regime, the Specter DIY offers discreet access to a signing device.

3. The @npub1j0dmd45txkz8v4deca4t3w6gge7rqlde8tc7tvwywt8q06n5epqqyclwm0 is fully OPENSOURCE enhancing security by allowing anyone to review and use the code without permission.
For example, the
@npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl
and Krux projects use much of the
@npub1j0dmd45txkz8v4deca4t3w6gge7rqlde8tc7tvwywt8q06n5epqqyclwm0 Code.
4. The device is BITCOIN and

ONLY. Supporting no altcoins. With a smaller codebase, there are fewer opportunities for vulnerabilities.

5. The Specter DIY operates AIR-GAPPED, with no physical connection Wi-Fi-connected devices, ensuring sensitive data like private keys remain secure. It communicates via QR codes or SD card, ensuring transparency so you can clearly understand the transaction signing process.

6. The device has a LARGE smartphone-like TOUCHSCREEN, offering a comfortable interface for smooth air-gapped communication, easy entry of seed words, and convenient navigation. This display simplifies tasks that are very cumbersome on smaller devices.

7. The Specter DIY is primarily a signing device and DOES NOT STORE SEED WORDS internally, enhancing security. Seed phrases need to be written down and re-entered manually. Alternatively, you can store the seed phrase on an unencrypted SD card or use SeedQR for easy import.

8. Since the seed phrase is not stored, the owner can create multiple MULTI SIGNATUR Wallets with only one device. Or act as "UNCLE JIM" and help family and friends set up a secure, watch-only wallet. Sharing the device requires minimal trust as the device could be tampered with.

9. One of the key features of the Specter DIY is its ability to integrate very transparent REAL-WORLD RANDOMNESS into seed phrase generation, such as by flipping coins. This helps safeguard against all potential attacks associated with weak seed entropy.

10. With BIP85 support, users can derive multiple child seeds from a single master seed. This feature is particularly useful for those managing multiple Bitcoin wallets, simplifying seed management for less important Seedphrases as well.

11. MINISCRIPT compatibility allows for sophisticated Bitcoin scripting capabilities. This feature opens up possibilities for time-locked transactions and other advanced use cases.
12. Conclusion:
The Specter DIY is the Swiss Army knife of hardware wallets, combining exceptional security with a wealth of advanced features. It empowers you to provide secure, affordable self-custody solutions to your family and friends. It also provides a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of Bitcoin, more so than with other hardware wallets. For these reasons, everyone should consider getting a
