Re: Does Electrum actually use the derivation path specified during setup?
⭐ Merited by o_e_l_e_o (2)
is there any implementation that uses hardened keys?
Well, Bitcoin Core uses m/0'/0'/i' as default, so hardened keys all the way down to the address index.I suppose some other older wallets which still use BIP 32 for their derivation paths rather than the more common BIP 44/49/84 may still use hardened keys at all levels, but given almost all wallets now follow BIP 44/49/84, I'm not familiar with any.
that makes sense.
i believe wallets that are designed like Electrum that have focused on both BIP-32 (HD wallets) and cold storage mode (offline-online) must use non-hardened addresses because if they don't the online-offline mode won't work since it requires master public key only on the online wallet.
core doesn't have this feature so it gets away with it.
i whave a question.. Hugs from Argentina.
I have Electrum Wallet.
Standard wallet.
Native Segwit
BIP32
where can i get the path? is just m/0 ?
if i use https://iancoleman.io/bip39/
give me an error because my wallet still use bip32, (but is native segwit)
i 'm just learning...
have you clear this subject?
