What is a seed phrase?

Created by Kyvo Support, Modified on Thu, 24 Apr at 3:04 PM by Kyvo Support

A seed phrase (also known as a recovery phrase or backup phrase) is a list of 12, 18, or 24 random words that gives you access to your cryptocurrency wallet.


It's like the master key to your wallet. Anyone who has your seed phrase can access your funds — even if they’re using a different phone or computer.


If your seed phrase is lost, it cannot be recovered. This means you will permanently lose access to your wallet and any digital assets stored inside.
