<h3>FAQ: What are some BAD use cases for Diceware?</h3>
You should not use Diceware in any cases where it is highly likely an attack can get a copy
of your encrypted password and use high-volume cracking attempts against it.
A bad case--possibly the worse case--for using Diceware would be to secure your BitCoint wallet,
because all BitCoin nodes have a copy of the BitCoin Ledger, and attacker
<a href="https://umanovskis.se/blog/post/leaky-faucet/">could attempt password cracking your wallet</a>.
<h3>"I can't believe you're sending passwords over the Internet!"</h3>
