TechFlow news: Kostas Chalkias, co-founder and chief cryptographer at Mysten Labs, tweeted that Sui will introduce a new compressed mnemonic format that reduces 12 words to 8 words without losing entropy. It will also provide an API to enable conversion between 12-word and 8-word formats, as well as reverse conversion.
The algorithm, dictionary, and API will be released soon and are currently still receiving feedback and undergoing refinement.
