RE: This is what I envision needs to happen in order for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency to reach mass adoption.

hi, the 32 or 21 digital number are required, because of hacking reasons. Otherwise the network can be conquered :) today quatum computer can easily hack any account, the more number you have the harder it is to hack it.

Sort:  

But for public keys too? I am talking about your public keys, the private keys should be as long as you can make them. 50 digits if you can remember it lol.

I figured out a way to remember a 52 digit pw easily enough recently, using just my immediate family members' birthdays (which I've memorized since childhood anyways - mixing in spouse and children work work as well), separated by special characters in a memorized sequence.
Ex: the start might be Mom022759@+Dad100855#+Jill071779$+... Even if the birthdates were public record and hackable, the methods of mixing in special characters would be unique or meaningful only to the user. In this example the separating characters are just going down the keyboard, 2, 3, 4... Works like a charm!

I wouldnt reveal any details like that on the internet.

Totally made up dates and examples, just providing a method that can be personally tailored and easily memorized by someone. Thanks for looking out!

I just noticed before I head out the door, you voted for my post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
