This is a more advanced topic on key creation and management.

LIBRE Account Namesare protected by cryptographic keys. This is typical for all blockchain accounts. Libre uses the same elliptical curve cryptoraphy as Bitcoin (). To generate your own keys you can use any of the following tools.

The benefit of generating your own seed phrase is that you will be able to import your account into Bitcoin Libre which provides a simple to use interface.

Libre-Specific Interfaces For Key Generation

We recommend using either Bitcoin Libre or our web tool to generate seed phrase and pub/private keys:

  • Libre Seed Generator ()

Other Tools For Key Generation

However, Libre is compatible with any any Standard BIP 39/32/44 seed generator.

You can find about how to generate these or use one of the following tools.

Extract Key from Seed Phrase

Any of the following tools can also extract a key from any BIP39 12 word seed phrase.
