i made the word key conversion tool/algorithm

https://wordstr.mleku.dev

it is a simple algorithm based on the BIP-39 word list that encodes your `nsec` precisely so you can write it down for backup

i might put it in for a proposal to add to nip-06 as a variant for cold backup of one's nsec, and a way to input the key into signing devices

for embedded devices the hex is better but for mobile and pc uses this is more handy for users

i'm unpopular with the NIP guardian clique but maybe if y'all who think it's a good idea nag them they will add it to nip-06, because the existing word key scheme they have devised is unsuitable for vanity keys like mine, or backing up after having generated and used a key for a long time

#devstr  #bip39  #nostr  #nsec  #backup
