Hi,
If you want to have a deterministic wallet but are afraid of forgetting your passphrase, you can now use one of your file to create your wallet
Moreover, a thief will have to check every file on your computer to find your generated keys

Download Fillet and run "./fillet.py --file ~/me.png --keynumber 1 --size 10 --pwpath ~/bitcoin/pywallet/"
All flags are optional except --file

Pywallet is used to convert your key to a Bitcoin address

When you will want to import a key, pywallet will do that easily

Pywallet: instructions. Encrypted wallet support, export/import keys/addresses, backup wallets, export/import CSV data from/into wallet, merge wallets, delete/import addresses and transactions, recover altcoins sent to bitcoin addresses, sign/verify messages and files with Bitcoin addresses, recover deleted wallets, etc.

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

It's not recommended obviously Wink
Using a short text file is also a bad idea

Every not common, binary file will bring huge security

Except that the thief could then either dl every non-common file or run the program on your machine relative to it. I think I would only do this if the file were on a removable drive. But then there's the chance of losing the file.

A passphrase is still the best option, imo.

I don't think he will download my 1k+ photos, and my 2TB external drive full of musics and films
With a 100MB file, it takes 5 seconds to calculate one private key


Use a 700MB movie, start at key number "your birthday+your phone number"/"your credit card number*your age"/"whatever" instead of 0, and nobody will never ever find your private key

That gives a whole new meaning to "private  key".


 Maybe it should be called privates key instead......
