Hi,

If I have a 24 word seed, and I split it into 2 - 12 and 12
If an attacker somehow finds either the first 12 words or the 2nd 12 words, is there anyway they can use that to easily derive/find the second 12 words? or am I as safe as If I simply had a 12 word seed (which many wallets use?)

Basically do the 2 halves in any way relate / help to derive each other, or do I retain half the entropy with half the seed? and does it matter if its the half including the checksum (can that be used in anyway to derive / guess what words it could be?)

Thanks  

*if this is wrong forum / somewhere better to ask please advise.
