Forget lists of words and alphanumeric strings: a new Bitcoin tool lets you hide the key to your coins inside a rainbow.

Bitcoin developer Entero Positivo launched “BIP39Colors” last month, an open-source tool that can convert one’s BIP39 mnemonic phrase into a series of colors, and vice versa.

“With this method, you can convert your 12-word phrase to 8 colors (or your 24-word phrase to 16 colors),” explained Positivo to Decrypt via DM. “Then you can convert your colors back to your original seed.”

BIP39 is a standard for generating one’s seed phrase, an ordered set of 12 to 24 words that contains the information necessary to create a private key, which is used to create and access one’s Bitcoin wallet.
