What is a seed phrase?
Decentralized wallets don’t have a “forgot password” option. If you lose your seed phrase and have no other backup, you’ll basically be unable to recover the assets in your wallet. Importing your seed phrase into another wallet that supports the same standard will generally restore the same addresses and assets.
You can think of a seed phrase as the “master key” to your entire wallet: the private keys for each address are derived from it, which makes it more important than any individual private key.
