How Do Hidden Phrase Plates Work?
Hidden Phrase plates record the placement of each seed word on the standard list of 2048 words provided by BIP39 (Bitcoin Improvement Proposal). This wordlist is what most popular cold and hot wallets pull from to generate your seedphrase.
Coldcard, Trezor, Ledger, Metamask, etc.
Numbers are recorded in binary, but don't worry, we provide a cheat sheet on our setup page. Also, the column headings allow you to easily decode.
In this example our first word is "grass" which is #816 on the wordlist.
To read your Hidden Phrase plate simply add the numbers in each row and find that word on the BIP39 wordlist.
