This option is perhaps even less desirable than using a BIP-39 Mnemonic Seed phrase, because

each and every Encrypted Wallet is exposed to this risk of loss.

*** Recovering your BIP-39 Seed Phrase
125+
126+
If you already have a BIP-39 Mnemonic, and would like back it up using SLIP-39 for more security
127+
and recovery reliability, you can use the SLIP-39 App's Backup Controls to do so. After you
128+
create your Seed Data (or enter an existing BIP-39 Seed Phrase), select "Using BIP-39". This
129+
will generate a set of SLIP-39 Mnemonic Cards that *backs up your existing BIP-39 Seed Phrase*.
130+
131+
Later, when you need to recover your BIP-39 Mnemonic (say, to initialize a fresh replacement
132+
Ledger hardware wallet), use the SLIP-39 App, select the Recover Controls, and enter sufficient
133+
SLIP-39 card Mnemonics -- and click "Using BIP-39" to reveal your original BIP-39 Seed Phrase.
134+
Then, proceed with Ledger wallet recovery as normal, using the BIP-39 Mnemonic.
135+
136+
This may not /seem/ like an impressive feat. But, it is unexpectedly important and powerful!
137+
Your existing BIP-39 Seed Phrase is *extremely* risky; it can /easily/ be lost or stolen. By
138+
using SLIP-39 to Backup your BIP-39 Seed Phrase, you can distribute the safe and reliable
139+
SLIP-39 Mnemonic cards to friends and family, and reduce the risks of theft or loss of your
140+
critical cryptocurrency accounts Seed data.
