Seed Phrase
A sequence of 12 or 24 random words generated when creating a wallet, serving as the master backup for all accounts. If you lose your device, entering the seed phrase into a new wallet restores full access. Anyone who obtains your seed phrase has complete control of your assets — store it offline on paper or metal, never digitally, and never share it with anyone for any reason.
