The Only Truth That Matters #
- Your Seed Phrase IS your wallet. Period.
- Lost your Hardware Wallet? Seed Phrase = full recovery
- Device destroyed with a hammer? Seed Phrase = full recovery
- Computer melted in lava? Seed Phrase = full recovery
- Forgot your password? Seed Phrase = full recovery
- Lost your USB? Seed Phrase = full recovery
No Seed Phrase = no recovery. Ever. No backdoors. No support tickets. No crying to customer service. This is cryptocurrency’s core principle.
The Math That Protects You #
- 12 words: 2^128 entropy = 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 possible combinations
- 24 words: 2^256 entropy = 115,792,089,237,316,195,423,570,985,008,687,907,853,269,984,665,640,564,039,457,584,007,913,129,639,936 combinations
- To crack 12 words at 1 trillion guesses/second would take 10,790,283,070,806 years. The universe is only 13.8 billion years old.
How to Save Your Seed Phrase #
Never:
- Screenshot it
- Email it
- Cloud storage
- Photo on phone
- Password manager
Always:
- Write on paper (pencil resists water damage better than ink)
- Metal backup (fireproof steel plates)
- Split between locations (6 words here, 6 words there)
- Safe deposit box for one copy
- Hidden location for another
The XColdPro Difference #
We don’t offer “account recovery” because that would be a lie. Other wallets claiming they can help you recover without your seed are either:
- Storing your keys (centralized = not your crypto)
- Lying to make sales
- Have backdoors (security nightmare)
XColdPro’s promise: Your Seed Phrase generates your keys using deterministic cryptography (BIP39/BIP44). Same seed = same addresses on any wallet, any device, forever. We use:
- Scrypt kdf (256mb ram requirement, asic-resistant)
- AES-256-cbc + hmac-sha256 (military-grade authentication, the actual Encryption they use)
- Triple memory overwrite (0x00→0xff→0xaa pattern)
- 640 bits total entropy when combined with password
But none of that matters without your Seed Phrase. The Seed Phrase IS the wallet.
Remember: Anyone with your Seed Phrase owns your crypto.
