Frequently Asked Questions

Do I Need the Mnemonic Box S1? According to the "2024 Q2 MistTrack Stolen Funds Analysis" report by the well-known security company SlowMist, private key leaks were the primary cause of theft incidents in the second quarter of 2024. The key factors leading to private key leaks include users failing to back up mnemonic phrases offline or downloading fake wallets. For this reason, we strongly recommend using the  imKey HeirBOX S1.

The  imKey HeirBOX S1 is precisely manufactured from 304 stainless steel, making it a much safer option for offline mnemonic phrase storage compared to paper backups. It not only protects digital assets from online hacking attempts but also offers robust resistance against various forms of physical damage, including fire, water, corrosion, and impact from falls.

Compared to similar products, the M imKey HeirBOX S1 offers enhanced security features, such as letter blocks with a thickness of 1mm and the use of five screws to secure the cover and box. For greater asset security, you need the  imKey HeirBOX S1.

Why Do I Only Need to Record the First 4 Letters of Each Mnemonic Word? Is That Safe? According to the rules defined by BIP39, you only need to record the first 4 letters of each word in the mnemonic phrase to accurately derive the full mnemonic. For example, if your mnemonic phrase is "desert shift awesome," you only need to record "dese shif awes" in the Mnemonic Box. Additionally, when using the mnemonic phrase to recover a wallet on imKey, entering the first 4 letters will generate the unique word for each part of the phrase. Therefore, you do not need to worry about the  imKey HeirBOX S1 not being able to store the complete mnemonic phrase.

To ensure the safety of your assets, we recommend using the stainless steel HeirBOX S1 for offline backup of your mnemonic phrase. Its water, fire, and corrosion resistance provides reliable protection for your mnemonic phrase.

Summary
This article provides a step-by-step guide on how to use the imKey HeirBOX P1, helping you get started easily and ensuring the safety of your digital assets.

Welcome to the [Mnemonic Box P1]! This tutorial will guide you step-by-step on how to use this product, helping you get started with ease.

Preparation

Before you begin, please ensure you have the following materials ready:

• Your wallet's mnemonic phrase/private key, either in its original form or after custom encryption
• The HeirBOX P1
• The letter plates (4 sheets, 520 character blocks, including uppercase and lowercase English letters, numbers (0-9), and ASCII characters, totaling 1040 characters)
• A screwdriver
• Irreversible seal stickers

Illustrated Steps for installation

Best Practice of Sensitive Information Backup

Note: You can store the last 8 characters of an address for differentiating wallets.

For better protection from prying eyes and theft, each character grid has its unique number which allows users to encrypt the stored keys by using their own encryption algorithm (please remember your own encryption algorithm carefully).

For example, you can encrypt the mnemonic by swapping the character blocks of E3 and F6, E4 and G6, E5 and H6. So that even if others get your box, your assets are still safe because they can’t get your mnemonic without knowing your encryption algorithm.

Reminder:

Please make sure to backup your encryption algorithm. Keep it and HeirBOX P1 in different places.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Do I Only Need to Record the First 4 Letters of Each Mnemonic Word? Is That Safe?
According to the BIP39 standard, you only need to record the first 4 letters of each word in the mnemonic phrase to derive the full phrase. For example, if your mnemonic phrase is "desert shift awesome," you only need to record "dese shif awes" on the plate. When restoring a wallet on imKey, entering the first 4 letters will generate the unique word for each part of the phrase. Therefore, you don’t need to worry about the imKey HeirTAB L1 not being able to store the complete mnemonic phrase.

Explanation About Stamping Depth
Some users may be concerned about the depth of the stamping on the plate. The stamping plate surface has a coating, and using the stamping pen leaves a small indentation. In fact, the stamping pen creates a deeper mark than traditional engraving on letter plates. After high-temperature burning and other tests, the stamped points remain clearly visible, ensuring the security of your mnemonic backup. There's no need to worry about insufficient stamping depth. Additionally, after stamping, the mnemonic positions will be more apparent when viewed from different angles.

Conclusion

The imKey HeirTAB L1 is a secure and reliable tool for storing your mnemonic phrases. Made from 304 stainless steel, it offers water, fire, and corrosion resistance, and is designed for completely offline use, effectively protecting your digital assets. It is easy to use and suitable for backing up and managing mnemonic phrases for various cryptocurrency wallets.
