You may think that we are about to guide you on ways to come up with super difficult to guess and super secure security questions in this section. This is not the case. In fact, in this section we are going to suggest questions which are easy to remember and not so difficult to guess. They will be questions where the answers do not change in the future and will always be the same. They will be questions where the answers will be known by everyone in your family after you die. Yes, these include birthdays and full names and old addresses. The goal is not to have very difficult questions but to have the right questions to make it hard for an unauthorized person to correctly answer them all; or for a government confiscation police person to unsuspectingly get the answers from your family members. The goal is also to make it impossible for a computer to brute force all possible combinations. 

 

Why are we recommending this? Because we believe the primary purpose of anyone deciding to implement security questions is to use Method 6 to store their Bitcoin information. And the primary reason people would use Method 6 is because it is the best way for your family or others close to you to get your bitcoins in the event you suddenly die or suddenly become mentally incapacitated. It is also a backup method for all your bitcoin information. If you choose security questions that have even the slightest chance of not being known or where the answer can be forgotten, then you will have failed in these primary reasons. 

 

Having said all this, this does not restrict you to only using these questions. If you want to use your own super difficult to guess, only your soul mate will know type questions, then this is encouraged provided that you understand the risks and are sure they will remember the answers. Before you choose to do this though, take a look at the following security questions since you might find that even though most of these questions are relatively easy to solve on their own, they are surprisingly hard to crack if you are not the authorized person. Pay special attention to the last one. Read on and decide for yourself…
