# seed-xor
|
|
|
|
seed-xor builds on top of [rust-bip39](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bip39/)
|
|
and lets you XOR bip39 mnemonics as defined in [Coldcards docs](https://github.com/Coldcard/firmware/blob/master/docs/seed-xor.md).
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to XOR mnemonics with differing numbers of words.
|
|
For this the shorter one will be extended with 0s during the XOR calculation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use seed_xor::Mnemonic;
|
|
use std::str::FromStr;
|
|
|
|
// Coldcard example: https://github.com/Coldcard/firmware/blob/master/docs/seed-xor.md
|
|
let a_str = "romance wink lottery autumn shop bring dawn tongue range crater truth ability miss spice fitness easy legal release recall obey exchange recycle dragon room";
|
|
let b_str = "lion misery divide hurry latin fluid camp advance illegal lab pyramid unaware eager fringe sick camera series noodle toy crowd jeans select depth lounge";
|
|
let c_str = "vault nominee cradle silk own frown throw leg cactus recall talent worry gadget surface shy planet purpose coffee drip few seven term squeeze educate";
|
|
let result_str = "silent toe meat possible chair blossom wait occur this worth option bag nurse find fish scene bench asthma bike wage world quit primary indoor";
|
|
|
|
// Mnemonic is a wrapper for bip39::Mnemonic which implements the XOR operation `^`.
|
|
// Mnemonics can also be created from entropy.
|
|
let a = Mnemonic::from_str(a_str).unwrap();
|
|
let b = Mnemonic::from_str(b_str).unwrap();
|
|
let c = Mnemonic::from_str(c_str).unwrap();
|
|
let result = Mnemonic::from_str(result_str).unwrap();
|
|
|
|
assert_eq!(result, a ^ b ^ c);
|
|
```
