I can work on this but I definitely wouldn’t recommend storing the password in a .env file as this is analogous to storing your private key in a .env file (a malicious actor can use the password to decode). The better approach would be to require user input for the password? |

Storing private keys in a .env file is insecure/prone to developer human error.
It would be great if there were a function within Accounts that was able to decrypt an encrypted JSON key, using a password that could be stored in a .env file.
Ethers currently supports this with
