Title: Electrum seeds with more than 13 words - are they OK?
Post by: m1bxd on August 02, 2015, 06:47:45 PM
Hi,

I trying to generate a nice random SEED phrase with a dice and several steps to get to:

electrum make_seed --entropy=13837166324271007511266747237152016797971056575940541277777369348077195841417

It will generate a SEED PHRASE

Question:

If the SEED phrase is more than 13 words is this OK or will it cause compatibility problems in the future?

Cheers Mark
