BlueWallet's version 8.0.0 introduces a manual entropy feature allowing users to supplement or replace device-generated randomness with physical methods like coin flips and dice rolls when creating Bitcoin wallets. This enhances security by ensuring the seed phrase, which controls wallet access, is generated with truly random input, reducing risks from predictable software random number generators. The feature targets security-conscious users and narrows the gap between software and hardware wallets by offering a manual entropy option previously found mainly in hardware wallets. This update is available on both iOS and Android and focuses solely on Bitcoin wallet security.
