Just remembered that I have written the recovery seed phrase of my Electrum on a piece of paper somewhere in my place. I'm wondering what could go wrong since my place isn't too secured. How about trying to memorize it? Is it possible?
Would you try?
What are the benefits? ... and the setbacks.
Yes, of course, I can remember the seed phrase to manage my bitcoins.
But I do not rely on my memory, I use a complex mental technology called "Mind Palace". It was described in detail in the TV series about Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.
The essence of the technology is that you recreate in your memory some real room or building, which has many rooms. In this room or building, you imagine various objects that correspond to the English words of the seed phrase.
Every day you travel through your "Mind Palace" and as a result, you can always restore the seed phrase in your memory. You will never forget it.
