My seed

I just wrote in another thread about how electrum addresses are derived from my seed. Just wondering whether that is possible literally? I mean literally derived from my DNA? Maybe that is how future bitcoin wallets will work.
Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

This would be completely possible. Somehow obtain your raw DNA sequence (TAGATTGAT...) and use it as a seed for a deterministic wallet. BIP 0032 could be a possible method.

That wouldn't be too smart though; if I got a hair of your body I could access all your coins.

Hair, skin cells CSI style or even saliva from a utensil I used would be enough to steal from me. So yeah not a good idea.

It could be the "something you are" part of a multifactor authentication system:

But as mentioned before we practically shed our DNA all over the place so it is useless to use it. Fingerprints or retinal scans are a better idea.
