39 - Mnemonic code for generating deterministic keys
BIP: 39 source Layer: Applications Title: Mnemonic code for generating deterministic keys Author: Marek Palatinus Pavol Rusnak Aaron Voisine Sean Bowe Comments-Summary: Unanimously Discourage for implementation Comments-URI: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/wiki/Comments:BIP-0039 Status: Final Type: Standards Track Created: 2013-09-10 Table of ContentsAbstractMotivationGenerating the mnemonicWordlistFrom mnemonic to seedWordlistsTest vectorsReference Implementation Abstract This BIP describes the implementation of a mnemonic code or mnemonic sentence -- a group of easy to remember words -- for the generation of deterministic wallets. It consists of two parts: generating the mnemonic and converting it into a binary seed. This seed can be later used to generate deterministic wallets using BIP-0032 or similar methods. Motivation A mnemonic code or sentence is superior for human interaction compared to the handling of raw binary or hexadeci...
