About "coyote" in BIP39
- "coyote" has 6 letters, but the first three, "coy", already identify it, because "co" also begins 40 other words, among them coach, coast, coconut and code. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- The same spelling is in the French BIP39 wordlist, but as word #462 (index 461), not #398. A wallet set to French reads "coyote" as 00111001101 instead of 00110001101, and decodes index 397 as "circuler".
