If I want to generate for example 10 Ethereum addresses and I want to use Myetherwallet , I have to create 10 different keystore/.json files and then use these files to access each address separately? Because that seems insanely annoying, considering that in principle it's advice against re-using the same address, I would have a bunch of these files to store, each with their own password...

Can I just get a file that can work as a seed that can spawn a bunch of different addresses? for example, you can use electrum, and save a file that you can load in electrum and have access to as many addresses as you want, not only 1 address per file. Is there any wallet that does this?

Let me ask you about that! if Ethereum wallet of yours will get hacked and having only one file or private key. what will you do then?
everything with ethereum is kinda good now and more secure. Never public your main wallet address and put all your tokens there.
remember that just your eth address can see all your belongings in crypto.

True, I would never store big amounts of money in Electrum for instance, as I don't like the idea of my seed to somehow get hacked, giving free access to all my existing and future-derived-from-the-seed addresses. However, I would be able to deal with this risk for small amount of ETH tokens. It's mostly to receive payments for the signature campaign im in. Lately, it seems they want to give payments in both BTC and the token they are promoting, so a lot of people are researching how to get an ETH address for the first time because of that.

I have decided to go for the keystore file for now, I will research the mnemonic option later, thanks.
