I've certainly seen it in\n\u003e\u003e usernames around the internet, and wouldn't be surprised to see it in\n\u003e\u003e passphrases entered on smartphones, especially if the author of a\n\u003e\u003e BIP38-compatible app includes a (possibly ill-advised) suggestion to\n\u003e\u003e have your passphrase \"include special characters\".\n\u003e\u003e \n\u003e\u003e I haven't seen the NULL character on any smartphone keyboards, though -\n\u003e\u003e I assume the iOS and Android developers had the foresight to know how\n\u003e\u003e much havoc that would wreak on systems assuming null-terminated strings.\n\u003e\u003e It seems unlikely that NULL would be in a real-world passphrase entered\n\u003e\u003e by a sane user.\n\u003e\u003e \n\u003e\u003e \n\u003e\u003e On Tue, Jul 15, 2014 at 8:03 AM, Mike Hearn \u003cmike at plan99.net\n\u003e\u003e \u003cmailto:mike at plan99.net\u003e\u003e wrote:\n\u003e\u003e \n\u003e\u003e [+cc aaron]\n\u003e\u003e \n\u003e\u003e We recently added an implementation of BIP 38 (password protected\n\u003e\u003e private keys) to bitcoinj. It came to my attention that the third\n\u003e\u003e test vector may be broken. It gives a hex version of what the NFC\n\u003e\u003e normalised version of the input string should be, but this does not\n\u003e\u003e match the results of the Java unicode normaliser, and in fact I\n\u003e\u003e can't even get Python to print the names of the characters past the\n\u003e\u003e embedded null.
