Great explainer, thank you.
Dice entropy math is hard. That is why the different wallets handle it differently. See the discussions about it:
https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39/issues/435
Be careful.
That's one of the reasons I prefer coin flips (see below).
Regarding the ColdCard internal random number generator fail this week, some folks may disagree with me, but trusting opaque hardware for generating entropy/seeds/keys is a single point of failure.
Inspired by the Ian Coleman bip39 tool, last night, I used AI to architect a zero-trust alternative. It bypasses silicon entirely by forcing 128 physical coin flips to generate the master seed.
- Deterministic single-file HTML build
- CSP locked / offline execution
- Full BIP85 index derivation
- Airgapped QR code export
- Zero hardware trust (Physics only)
