Abstract
In this paper I have discussed a new method of enabling a cryptocurrency wallet user to define his own unforgettable seed phrase. An algorithm named SEEPT (Seed Phrase Transformation) is provided and illustrated with a real user defined seed phrase as input and a BIP39 standard seed phrase generated as output through cryptographic transformations. Discussed in detail is how an unforgettable seed phrase can be generatedfrom a set of names or words that are specific to a user’s personal life. Explained in detail as to how a wallet user can reconstruct his seed phrase on demand without depending on any storage, thereby relieving him from the burden of memorizing it frequently or storing it digitally on a computer hardware or physically on a paper or metal media.
期刊介绍:
The paradigm for the next generation of information systems (ISs) will involve large numbers of ISs distributed over large, complex computer/communication networks. Such ISs will manage or have access to large amounts of information and computing services and will interoperate as required. These support individual or collaborative human work. Communication among component systems will be done using protocols that range from conventional ones to those based on distributed AI. We call such next generation ISs Cooperative Information Systems (CIS).
The International Journal of Cooperative Information Systems (IJCIS) addresses the intricacies of cooperative work in the framework of distributed interoperable information systems. It provides a forum for the presentation and dissemination of research covering all aspects of CIS design, requirements, functionality, implementation, deployment, and evolution.
