Just saw a post on the trezor page regarding passphrase issues.
I love the passphrase idea!
But here’s a warning from my stupidity.
I setup a passphrase wallet for my partner yesterday. Sent all the btc there. Logged in to check this morning. Transaction was confirmed as sent. So entered passphrase and logged into an empty wallet. Had a bit of a quiet seizure and panic to myself. Checked spelling of passphrase etc all was correct. My brain was racing lol Had a few try’s and managed to get in.
When I had setup the passphrase I had automatically hit the space bar after the last word. Couldn’t see it on the screen but the spaces are counted!
I was lucky. The next person may not be so. So be careful. Check every single letter and space. They are case sensitive also.
Have fun stacking but be safe so the stack is not lost!
I would have been in big trouble if I could get back in lol
