Bitcoin Cash is meant for people all over EARTH. Most of those people don’t speak english. That’s why today we’re releasing wordLists so you can generate mnemonics in 8 different languages to help spread $BCH to people all over the planet.

wordLists

BITBOX.Mnemonic now has a wordLists method which returns an object w/ the following keys:

{ chinese_simplified : [], chinese_traditional : [], english : [], french : [], italian : [], japanese : [], korean : [], spanish : [] }

Each of these keys contains an array w/ 2048 words in that language. 4 BITBOX.Mnemonic methods now accept that wordlist as their 2nd argument and will create and validate mnemonics in those languages.

The methods which now accepts a wordslist argument are
