VAULTIGO Seed Phrase Backup Plate: Official Usage Guide

Core Usage Process

This guide outlines the standard operating procedure for securing your BIP39-compliant seed phrase (12/15/18/21/24 words) with the VAULTIGO Seed Phrase Backup Plate. Adhere to the steps below to ensure maximum security.

1. Obtain Seed Phrase in a Fully Offline Environment

Generate or retrieve your seed phrase without any internet connection. Prioritize absolute privacy:

• Remove all electronic devices with cameras, microphones, or recording functions (phones, tablets, laptops, smartwatches) from the workspace, or store them in a separate room.
• Ensure no surveillance cameras (indoor or outdoor), peepholes, or third parties are present to avoid unauthorized viewing or recording.
• Verify the seed phrase directly from your hardware wallet’s screen—do not use digital displays that may log or transmit data.

2. Precisely Mark with Matching Professional Tools

Use the included professional tungsten steel punch (or compatible marking tool) to record your seed phrase on the VAULTIGO plate. Accuracy is non-negotiable:

• Place the plate on a flat, stable, and non-slip surface (e.g., a heavy workbench) to prevent movement during marking.
• Follow the exact orderof your seed phrase (Word 1 to Word 24, etc.). For each word, locate the corresponding position on the plate (align with the first 4 letters per BIP39 standards).
• Align the punch tip precisely with the target position. Press firmly and evenly to create a clear, permanent indentation—avoid light marking (may fade over time) or over-punching (may damage the plate).
• Record one word at a time, maintaining focus to avoid skipping or repeating words.

3. Verify Record Accuracy Thoroughly

Post-marking verification is the most critical step to prevent irreversible errors. Do not skip or rush this process:

• Cross-check each marked word (spelling and order) on the VAULTIGO plate against your original seed phrase twice.
• Pay special attention to similar-looking words in the BIP39 wordlist (e.g., "apple" vs. "apply", "ocean" vs. "octal")—a single letter difference will invalidate wallet recovery.
• If any error is found, discard the current plate and restart the process with a new VAULTIGO backup plate. Do not attempt to correct errors on the same plate (corrections cause confusion and security risks).

4. Store Securely with Decentralized Storage Strategy

The VAULTIGO plate’s durability (fireproof, waterproof, corrosion-resistant, shockproof) is only effective with proper storage. Implement a decentralized strategy to mitigate risks:

• Store the plate in a dry, cool, and concealed location (e.g., a home safe, fireproof box, or safety deposit box).
• Avoid storing the plate with your hardware wallet, digital devices, or other seed phrase backups—never keep all access points in one place.
• Do not disclose the storage location to anyone. For high-value assets, consider splitting the plate into multiple parts (if applicable) and storing them in separate secure locations.

Key Important Notes

• Maintain Absolute Privacy: Operate in a space with no distractions, monitoring, or third-party presence. Even accidental exposure (e.g., over-the-shoulder viewing) can compromise your assets.
• Double-Check Spelling Rigorously: The BIP39 wordlist contains numerous similar words. Always confirm each word’s spelling against your wallet’s original display—never rely on memory.
• Ban Digital Recording of Any Kind: Never photograph, screenshot, type, or store your seed phrase digitally (cloud storage, phone notes, emails, etc.). All digital records are vulnerable to hacking, phishing, or data breaches.
• Inspect Regularly: Conduct annual inspections of the VAULTIGO plate to ensure the metal surface is free from corrosion, deformation, or fading, and that all indentations remain clear and legible.
• Use Only Official Tools: Always use the included tungsten steel punch or VAULTIGO-certified marking tools. Uncertified tools may cause unclear indentations or plate damage.
