If you're into #Bitcoin self-custody but have never created your own seed phrase using real randomness, like rolling dice, you are at risk. Never rely on a hardware wallet to generate your seed for you.
I (re)wrote a popular guide in my own style on how to create your own seed phrase from scratch. It takes a bit of time, but it’s fun, and you’ll end up with real, personal entropy you can trust!
