thanks for the valuable information , this mean the seedphrase are weak and  more likely to fail with brute force? so actual  passphrase is recommended but really i do need it or it just optional military grade thing for wallet ?
i have second pin for blockchain wallet , any highly established online wallet that provide passphrase ?

i run my machine with linux distro . attacks are not common  .

That's actually not what I meant. The seed phrase will be impossible to brute force regardless of the wallet you're using.

The passphrase I was referring to, is a "custom word" (optional) you can add to your seed and memorize, that way, even if someone finds your seed written down, the hacker will just find an empty wallet since he doesn't have access to the custom words you've added.

Unstoppable wallet should support passphrases as mentioned here: https://unstoppablewallet.medium.com/whats-new-version-0-21-c247a09d8b05

thanks . this what i did read about passphrase since your previous post https://blackseedink.com/blogs/news/seed-phrase-and-passphrase-are-not-the-same

do you mean that?

i think Unstoppable wallet is recently developed ?   is there secure open source desktop wallet + widely used + highly established  . does not require to download entire blockchain and linux compatible ? simple interface and low fees
Previously, I recommended the Ledger wallet, but now I will advise you to buy the Trezor hardware wallet. The wallet is open source and you can use this wallet in conjunction with most DeFi wallets. And you won't have to worry about security, but don't forget that if you give permissions to smart contracts to spend your coins, then a hardware wallet will not save you.
