How To Store Bitcoin Private Key as Colors?

Bitcoin developer Entero Positivo introduces "BIP39Colors," a tool that hides your key inside a rainbow

[{"selector":"#anim-bac2c1f1-4711-4238-95df-8848f247ef81","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5349c3c2-b3b9-4628-9211-f0d61f258f53","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4f71f498-5a8f-40c4-826d-b723e27ffc6e [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

BIP39Colors converts your 12 or 24-word mnemonic phrase into a series of colors

[{"selector":"#anim-f6795bfc-aab9-4dac-93f0-0a74158d9edf [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-57864936-95a6-45f9-827d-909a47630a26","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-aaf4e48a-3ec2-4f25-9713-9e4cae111629","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

You can then convert the colors back into your original seed whenever needed. It's like a secret language that only you can understand

[{"selector":"#anim-fde13941-eb98-4f66-9093-17eef3c38bc8 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fc656e2d-2815-434c-a3b3-9688b63f12e3","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f054136e-00a4-40be-807e-b30b0e0d7152","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Mnemonic phrases are essential for generating private keys in Bitcoin wallets. BIP39 standardizes this process, making it easier to recover your crypto if you lose your device

[{"selector":"#anim-e563024f-ab11-4232-a532-8cf826674be7 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f2e291ff-a290-4edc-9cf4-bf55ce0be66e","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f0d70a67-0fc4-4215-ab03-a59ef498cac6","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Unlike writing down your words, hiding your crypto in colors is discreet and clever

[{"selector":"#anim-27c21c7f-c959-4529-a05a-246bdfb08578 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-52ecc58f-166b-48af-8702-db3f89259c1d","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e694983b-4080-4a83-a0dd-3875922a47bd","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Colors can be stored in various files: HTML, CSS, or even a PNG color palette. Your private key can be right under their noses, yet they won't realize it

[{"selector":"#anim-45924fbb-b2d9-4768-bdd1-f04c42b098d6 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-24d570b5-eb28-4b3e-9a46-e6f76e5566fa","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e97b9781-84d6-48ae-82cd-50a2e8529100","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

By leveraging the flexibility of color storage, BIP39Colors makes it harder for governments to seize someone's Bitcoin

[{"selector":"#anim-4f7669e1-9e7d-44e7-bce0-f67be7db84de [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ee56ee9a-c1e8-4160-8d40-2bdc036bb328","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-cb2b9dc5-14ef-4b5e-a6d7-e1853246255b","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]
