- only 256-bit (25-word) new-style mnemonics are supported
Testing:
$ test/unit_tests.py baseconv
$ test/tooltest2.py hex2mn mn2hex
$ test/scrambletest.py pw
$ test/test.py ref_xmrseed_25_passwdgen_3
$ test/test.py ref_passwdfile_chk_xmrseed_25
The following operations are supported:
Generate a random Monero mnemonic:
$ mmgen-tool mn_rand256 fmt=xmrseed
Generate a Monero mnemonic from hexadecimal data:
$ mmgen-tool hex2mn deadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef fmt=xmrseed
Convert the resulting mnemonic back to hexadecimal data:
$ mmgen-tool mn2hex 'viewpoint donuts ardent template unveil agile meant unafraid urgent athlete rustled mime azure jaded hawk baby jagged haystack baby jagged haystack ramped oncoming point template' fmt=xmrseed
Note that the result of the reversal does not match the original input. This
is because input data is reduced to a spendkey before conversion so that a
canonical seed phrase is produced. This is required because Monero seeds,
unlike ordinary wallet seeds, are tied to a concrete key/address pair. The
spendkey can be generated directly using the `hex2wif` command:
$ mmgen-tool --coin=xmr hex2wif deadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef
Generate a list of passwords in Monero mnemonic format with ID 'mymonero':
$ mmgen-passgen -f xmrseed 'mymonero' 1-10
