Also, keep in mind that if you use 24 words seed phrase, even if you reveal words in unordered way, hacker still won't be able to crack your wallet, but will be able to crack if you use 12 words seed phrase and reveal all of them.


There are two ways to recover the seed phrase of Trezor One on Trezor Suite, one is standard and the other is advanced.
When restoring in the standard mode, the words are entered directly in a unordered way. If 12 out of 24 words have been exposed, then this recovery method is obviously not secure. If I enter in advanced mode, will there be no problem? Of course, a safer way is to write down the 24-word password and encrypt only the passphrase.
