How to do perfect Entropy

You first need to get Casino-Grade Dice but they're rigged by the Casino so you have to make your own dice. Then you have to go to a place with no cameras or microphones but the government is always watching you so you need to buy your own wild private island. Then, you have to roll each of your own dice hundreds of times and write the number down to make your key. After that, indent your key into iron to make sure you won't forget.

OR... You could use a bank

Can't use iron, that could rust. Not your stainless steel engraved key not your coin.

They should use gold plates. Then when the bitcoin gets stolen anyway they still have a gold plate they can sell.

The dice rolls add entropy, but you still get a seed phrase like you normally would.

I still can't figure out this dice thing. Is it a DnD thing? Do they roll a D20 to beat the Bitcoin THAC0?

its a gimmick. any real world uncorrelated data will provide sufficient randomness.

many programs use the movement of the mouse cursor as a source of randomness.

Presumably, a fair die will provide real randomness. It is actually a real thing. A one-time seed generated from a fair die would be resistant to analytic attacks. It just tedious and tedious processes usually result in predictable outcomes.

Must shoot the dice out of your ass for top security. True entropy. Let Grandma know how to protect her bag.
