HD Wallet Derivation (Python)

Derive hierarchical deterministic (HD) wallet addresses from a mnemonic using BIP-32/BIP-44 in Python. Derive hierarchical deterministic (HD) wallet addresses from a mnemonic using BIP-32/BIP-44 in Python.

Explanation

BIP-39 generates a mnemonic seed phrase. BIP-32 defines hierarchical derivation. BIP-44 standardizes the derivation path — m/44’/60’/0’/0/i is the Ethereum standard. This lets one seed phrase manage unlimited addresses.
