How to Generate a Seed Phrase

Need a secure seed phrase for your crypto wallet? Generating one’s easy, but doing it right keeps your funds safe. Here’s a step-by-step guide using Crypto Seed Converter—a free, in-browser tool that’s BIP-39 compliant.

Step 1: Pick a Safe Tool

Start with Crypto Seed Converter—it’s built on BIP-39, the gold standard for mnemonics, used by wallets like Ledger and MetaMask. No downloads, no risks—all local processing.

Step 2: Go Offline for Max Security

Disconnect from the internet before generating—air-gapped is best. Hackers can’t touch what’s offline. Load Crypto Seed Converter, then unplug—simple and paranoid-approved.

Step 3: Generate Your Phrase

On the homepage, choose 12 or 24 words (24’s tougher to crack—256-bit entropy). Click “Check Your Seed Now!”—bam, you’ve got a fresh mnemonic like “apple zebra lunar…”. It’s random, unique, and yours.

Step 4: Store It Right

Write it on paper or etch it on metal—digital copies scream “hack me.” Stash it in a safe or split it across locations (see Secure Seed Storage Tips). Lose it, lose your crypto—20% of BTC’s gone this way.

Step 5: Test It Out

Validate your new phrase and test its balance with Crypto Seed Converter—ensures it’s wallet-ready. Hit “Check Your Seed Now!” again—safe, instant feedback, all in-browser.
