Mersenne Twister 32 bit seeding => Trust Wallet PRNG consumption pattern => direct elliptic curve key

This is a special and unusual way of generating keys directly from the PRNG output without any BIP39 or BIP32 hashing or derivations.

We're not aware of a specific wallet software with this weak generation pattern.

Observed Usage

  • We only investigated usage with Bitcoin.
  • Compressed and uncompressed pubkeys
