Got it. But then where's it come from / get hydrated? Does that mean it's living encrypted on your DB?

Yes, that’s how you have access to it on all devices and have to enter the same passphrase on all of them (we have plans to make this not necessary) and how we (or an attacker) don’t have access to it because we can’t decrypt it.

Ahhh, the passphrase decrypts it. THANK YOU!

And I guess last question because I have a severe misunderstanding:

in what ways am I NOT giving SN the ability to spend my money: when SN's website is NOT loaded in your browser or your wallet is NOT decrypted or your browser is NOT connected to the internet, SN cannot spend your money.

The encryption key must live somewhere so can't SN decrypt said NWC and spend money that way? Or do I severely misunderstand NWC

That key is generated on your device and never leaves it. It is stored in IndexedDB as non-extractable.

Super cool. stuff. I learned a lot through this exchange. Thanks a lot!

No worries, more people should understand that we’re not shooting ourselves in the foot for no reason

But most people are high on custodial stuff haha
