Kostas Chalkias, co-founder and chief cryptographer of Mysten Labs, said in a post on the X platform that Sui will launch a new mode of compressed mnemonic format, which can reduce 12 words to 8 words without losing entropy. It will also provide an API to achieve the conversion from 12 words to 8 words and vice versa. The algorithm, dictionary and API will be released soon and are still receiving feedback and improvement.
