About BIP32

BIP32 (Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 32) defines Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallets that can derive a tree of key pairs from a single seed. This allows creating multiple addresses from one backup.

Key features:

  • Deterministic: Same seed always generates same keys
  • Hierarchical: Parent keys can derive child keys
  • Hardened derivation: Enhanced security with apostrophe notation (')
  • Extended keys: Contains both key and chain code for derivation
  • Multi-currency: Supports different networks and cryptocurrencies

Use cases: Hierarchical wallet generation, generating unlimited addresses from one seed, creating watch-only wallets with xpub, implementing BIP44/49/84 standards
