Generate a Recovery Phrase With a D8 Die
This method uses an eight-sided die. Each roll supplies three bits, so four rolls create 12 bits and you retain the first 11. Repeat for 12 or 24 words, then follow the final-word procedure.
Roll the die four times for each word and use this conversion table:
| Result | Bits |
|---|---|
| 1 | 000 |
| 2 | 001 |
| 3 | 010 |
| 4 | 011 |
| 5 | 100 |
| 6 | 101 |
| 7 | 110 |
| 8 | 111 |
Read the accumulated bits from left to right, discard the final bit to leave 11 bits, and use the binary words table to find the BIP-39 word.
