I received your email with part of the
treasure hunt.
I only said that each line is one word from the bip39 dictionary.
How do you know for sure it refers to the BIP39 word list?
I noticed 2 things:
- All "first numbers" are less than a third of 2048. That makes it not likely to refer to the word list in a linear way, as random numbers would be spread out more evenly.
- One of them has an arrow (->) in there
It can basically be anything:
- word 135 + 11 - 6
- word 135 * 11 / 6 round up/down
- start with word 135, add 11, add 6, add 618 to get word 2
- start with word 135, word 2 = 135+618, word 3 = 135 + 618 + 91 ... wrap around at 2048 to start over
- a book, page 135, line 11, word 6
Your case shows the danger of inventing some obscure scheme to obfuscate such things and not have a documentation for unscrambling to pass to the heirs.
Exactly.
Put yourself in the other person's shoes: how would you obfuscate your seed so that nobody else can access it, but it's still easy for you?
it is written on the recovery sheet from Trezor.
Is the Trezor device still around? I've read about physical hacks on Trezor hardware wallets that give you either the PIN or the seed, at least on some models/firmwares.
