Re: Using Diceware, BIP39 and leetspeak for Argon2id keys

BTW. I figured out something IMHO really nice.
 
When using my dice2bip program with a '0', for example, as passphrase value
I get the following BIP39 mnemonics:
 
$ dice2bip -passphrase 0
24-word mnemonic:
grow chronic river sand follow wide spell depth change exclude diet disease around couple buzz domain public addict pave focus top crane glue valid
 
And now comes the fun part.
 
Feeding this mnemonic into https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ and pressing
the Show entropy details, I have made the '0' 256 bit entropy so to speak
and could theoretically use the hex values as deterministic encryption key.

I renamed my dice2bip program, on GitHub, to p2m (password to mnemonic)
and it has now a feature added to show the entropy, as hex value, of the
mnemonic phrase.

This allows one for example to use the mnemonic phrase from a Ledger Hardware
Wallet to use as 256 bit encryption key. :-D
