<p>As Electrum is open-source software, we can probably safely assume it will never go away. That is, even if the devs were to take it off of github etc, there are likely thousands of copies of the source code distributed on the nets. But let's say all the electrum servers were taken down and for whatever reason you couldn't run a python interpretter (not very likely). Again because Electrum is open-source, the algorithm for transforming a seed into a private key and the derived private keys is known. So in theory, you could just do the math and generate your private keys manually from your seed. Practically, if you can get hold of a python interpretter, you can restore an Electrum database and dump all of your private keys without ever connecting to the internet. From there, sweep the balances into any wallet such as Bitcoin-QT.</p>

<p>There is an HTML client called <a href="http://carbonwallet.com" rel="nofollow">http://carbonwallet.com</a>, but it is made by an individual I wouldn't trust putting my seed there unless I'm sure what the code does.</p>

<p>You can try the Android version that is available, or wait a bit more for the Electrum Kivy for Android (and iOS).</p>

<p>HTML clients are Javascript that runs in BROWSERS!... so local software is better and more secure.</p>

<p>Electrum uses its own 12 words seeds since it was created, with version 2.0 it will use its own 14 words passphrases for the BIP32 standard (so it will use a non-standard). So unless you see a "Electrum seeds/12 words passphrases" supported you'll have to either manually compare the results in other wallets or ask for Electrum's seeds support.</p>

# Can I use my Electrum seed without Electrum?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2014-08-13)

Assumptions:

1. I've memorized my electrum seed and will never forget it
2. In the future, I'm robbed of everything but mind and body
3. In the future, Electrum software is not easily accessible or I can
   only access thin clients

Question:

Is there another way to use my 12 word seed?

HTML port of Electrum hosted somewhere? iOS wallet that's electrum compatible? Etc.

Is there a reason it's local software and not just HTML? (other than someone dedicating the time)

Is there a reason 12 word seeds aren't universal across wallets that use 12 word seeds?

As Electrum is open-source software, we can probably safely assume it will never go away. That is, even if the devs were to take it off of github etc, there are likely thousands of copies of the source code distributed on the nets. But let's say all the electrum servers were taken down and for whatever reason you couldn't run a python interpretter (not very likely). Again because Electrum is open-source, the algorithm for transforming a seed into a private key and the derived private keys is known. So in theory, you could just do the math and generate your private keys manually from your seed. Practically, if you can get hold of a python interpretter, you can restore an Electrum database and dump all of your private keys without ever connecting to the internet. From there, sweep the balances into any wallet such as Bitcoin-QT.

[jonald\_fyookball on BitcoinTalk has written a short python script that will generate your addresses/private keys without Electrum:](https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=612143.0)

There is an HTML client called <http://carbonwallet.com>, but it is made by an individual I wouldn't trust putting my seed there unless I'm sure what the code does.

You can try the Android version that is available, or wait a bit more for the Electrum Kivy for Android (and iOS).

HTML clients are Javascript that runs in BROWSERS!... so local software is better and more secure.

Electrum uses its own 12 words seeds since it was created, with version 2.0 it will use its own 14 words passphrases for the BIP32 standard (so it will use a non-standard). So unless you see a "Electrum seeds/12 words passphrases" supported you'll have to either manually compare the results in other wallets or ask for Electrum's seeds support.
