no cesar is broken within 30 seconds tops
use bip38 it uses scrypt takes about 5 seconds to try a single password with a 20+char phrase it takes at lease 900 quintillion years with the entire hashpower of nicehash to put a dent on it.

What is a private key? I only have the password recreation phrases written on a card for my hardware wallets

yeah anyone can do with n of n secret sharing with any crpytographic hash function, but solid general purpose n of m is more tricky.

Sadly in that case we're all fucked, I mean, you could even forget that you hold crypto all together, or we're you stored your private key/seed/instructions and so on. It's the risk to take if you want to go trustless, otherwise share the thing with two close family members

>> No.14051268

There are many creative ways to store private keys in a way that you can recover them even if all of your property and any possible bank vaults get lost, but they may require some programming experience

>> No.14051284

Oh, you can also store a private key in a way that NOBODY will figure out it's a private key

>> No.14051307

>>14051284
This.
Just write it into a .txt file and name it "not a private key".

Based. Holding your own keys is too centralized. By decentralizing the money from the person who owns it you create a more robust system

I wrote the key in a text file which i put into a folder named ”Internet explorer”. I then changed the icon of the folder to the internet explorer icon so now when the hackers come they wont open it because they think its useless internet explorer xD
