If the words of a 12-word seed phrase are known, it’s deceptively easy to enter the wallet and sweep the funds. A systems architect cracked a seed phrase and won a 100,000 Satoshi bounty, or 0.001 Bitcoin (BTC), worth $29, in just under half an hour. Cointelegraph spoke to Andrew Fraser in Boston, who underscored how critical it is to keep a Bitcoin wallet seed phrase secure and offline.  A seed phrase or recovery phrase is a string of random words generated when a wallet is created that can access the wallet, similar to a master key. Fraser brute forced a 12-word seed phrase that Bitcoin educator “Wicked Bitcoin” shared on Twitter: Anyone want to try and brute force this 12-word seed phrase securing 100,000 sats?

The world needs innovation to hit the Sustainable Development Goals set by the UN in time, and blockchain is here to help. The COVID-19 pandemic has erased more than four years of progress in the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While philanthropy is seen as a key contributor to getting the international development agenda back on track, it is plagued by a lack of transparency — a drawback that can be solved by technology. Introduced in 2015 by the UN, the 17 SDGs range from poverty eradication to clean water and sanitation with a goal of transforming the planet for the better by 2030. Social giving is a critical enabler in using the wealth of the globe to increase the quality of life in the least-developed countries. However, the legacy systems used by charities beg for more transparency, efficiency and accountability — with the latter also being highlighted by the UN as a significant challenge standing before the SDGs. Blockchain for a better world Blockchain te...
