Python implementation of diceware using the bip39 wordlist.
Generate a pseudorandom phrase from the bip39 wordlist for passphrases or seed phrases. This script implements Arman the Parman's method to derive the seed phrase.
Note: The old method of simulating actual dice is found in the "old" folder.
Inspiration:
- xkcd: correct horse battery staple
- Dr. Mike Pound's video for Computerphile on how to choose a password.
import jdice2
seed_phrase = jdice2.get_bip39()
print(seed_phrase)
# helmet distance wedding frequent chunk burst, etc...
# Other utilities
# returns full word based on first four chararcters
ff = "corr"
full_word = jdice2.first_four(ff)
print(full_word)
# correct
# returns a randomly generated password - Not wordlist related, just convenient
password = jdice2.generate_password(passwordlength=16)
print(password)

- Do not use this to generate real seed phrases.
- Pseudorandom isn't random.
- If you do proceed at your own risk, heed the usual warnings about generating passwords and seed phrases securely in a fully offline, air-gapped environment.
