@Bitfi6 In your wallet, since the user chooses the pass phrase (as @officialmcafee is saying), then what prevents two different users from choosing the same phrase (thus having access to the same wallet) ?

Hi Hash, the device also requires a salt (which could be a phone number, social security number, or email address) this makes it impossible for two users to end up with same phrase.

Hi Oliver, no it’s literally impossible. Because in the very unlikely event that two users select same phrase how can they also have the same phone number or email address? This is impossible.

We tell users to use a phone number, social security number, or email address. Following this guideline, it’s impossible to end up with identical phrases.

How will you have the same phone number or email address as another person?

Since humans are not good at choose strong random passphrases, these can be guessed (at east for some dump users). Then, for an attacker, testing all possible salts (phones etc likely to have been used) is very easy. That's a big security concern.

That’s why we include a dice that you can roll to create perfect analog randomness.
