Printed out the BIP 39 2048 word list. cut it all up (took a fucking while) but now it’s all done. chose my 23 words and had seed signer calculate the 24th. originally wanted to do dice but still was paranoid to trust its math… even after verifying several sets of rolls on ian coleman’s website. Mind you I also verified seedsigner os before running it on the seedsigner hardware. this should be the best trustless way to generate a seed phrase as you generate 23 words even if the seed signer math screws you somehow (you still choose from a limited amount of checksums for the 24th word). No better way to generate your own seed phrase… 2048 words in a hat over everything else.

This always been interesting to me, its one in a jillion chance but imagine generating a seed phrase and somebody had it and its got tons of associated coin
If you restricted the use of any word more than once by this approach then you cut down on the total randomness of the system, weakening your seed phrase (probably insignificantly)
This method reduces randomness.
Not sure why you think this is better than dice rolls or coin flips, and this is a ton of extra work, but you got to the same level of randomness in the end.
I love that you actually did this.
Cutting out 2048 words is batshit insane. Totally unnecessary.
But for reasons I couldn’t explain, it having happened brings me joy.
