Electrum legacy wallet in new version

[bnbstorm]

Is there a way to create a legacy wallet in current version of Electrum? As far as I have checked I was unable to find a way to create a legacy wallet starting with 1.

For generating a legacy wallet, you need to go to "console" tab and use the following command.

Code:

make_seed(128,"","standard")

If you don't see "Console" tab, click on "View" at top of the window and select "Show Console".

Thanks it worked and I got a new seed. But I would like to ask what does 128 mean?

That's the number of bits of entropy.
With 128 bits of entropy, you will have a 12 word seed phrase. For example, you can change the 128 to 256 to have a 24 word seed phrase.

Code:

make_seed(256,"","standard")
