# Recovery Phrases

Recovery phrases, also known as seed phrases or mnemonic phrases, are a series of words that are used to restore access to a cryptocurrency wallet in the event that you lose your password or private key. It is important to protect your recovery phrase and keep it private, as anyone with access to it will be able to access and potentially manage the assets in your wallet.
