. The public addresses are automatically derived from the private keys. A wallet does not store coins. 256 bits) multiple of. Apr 20, 2018 Other platforms. The process for other cryptos is much the same, except that you may need different software to generate a key. Ian Coleman’s site has some great resources for generating a SEED for BIP39-supported coins offline, and creating a series of addresses from it. You can use the same SEED to create multiple addresses for multiple different coins — just keep it safe if you choose. Nov 20, 2017 For Bitcoin Block Explorer - Blockchain 's newer wallets based off a recovery phrase Note: Bitcoin Block Explorer - Blockchain 's new wallets make use of a bip39 recovery seed to generate EVERY ADDRESS and PRIVATE KEY in your Blockchain.info account. At this time it is not possible to extract only 1 address' private key so the only option is to make use of the recovery seed to gain access to the address that has your OmniTokens. How to generate a BIP39 mnemonic from an Ed25519 (Ed25519+libsodium, with 8 for salt, 48 for key plus 32 bytes) encrypted private key? I have an Ed25519 encrypted private key (for which I know the password). I would like to create a BIP39 mnemonic from it. This is to import a private key generated elsewhere into a Nano Ledger S wallet.

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 abinary seed. This seed can be later used to generate deterministic wallets usingBIP-0032 or similar methods.
Motivation
A mnemonic code or sentence is superior for human interaction compared to thehandling of raw binary or hexadecimal representations of a wallet seed. Thesentence could be written on paper or spoken over the telephone. https://bossleaf.weebly.com/windows-7-professional-key-generator.html.
This guide is meant to be a way to transport computer-generated randomness witha human readable transcription. It's not a way to process user-createdsentences (also known as brainwallets) into a wallet seed.
Generating the mnemonic
The mnemonic must encode entropy in a multiple of 32 bits. With more entropysecurity is improved but the sentence length increases. We refer to theinitial entropy length as ENT. The allowed size of ENT is 128-256 bits.
First, an initial entropy of ENT bits is generated. A checksum is generated by Securecrt for mac.
taking the first bits of its SHA256 hash. This checksum isappended to the end of the initial entropy. Next, these concatenated bitsare split into groups of 11 bits, each encoding a number from 0-2047, servingas an index into a wordlist. Finally, we convert these numbers into words anduse the joined words as a mnemonic sentence.
The following table describes the relation between the initial entropylength (ENT), the checksum length (CS) and the length of the generated mnemonicsentence (MS) in words.
Wordlist
An ideal wordlist has the following characteristics:
a) smart selection of words
b) similar words avoided
c) sorted wordlists
The wordlist can contain native characters, but they must be encoded in UTF-8using Normalization Form Compatibility Decomposition (NFKD).
From mnemonic to seed
A user may decide to protect their mnemonic with a passphrase. If a passphrase is notpresent, an empty string ' is used instead.
To create a binary seed from the mnemonic, we use the PBKDF2 function with a mnemonicsentence (in UTF-8 NFKD) used as the password and the string 'mnemonic' + passphrase (againin UTF-8 NFKD) used as the salt. The iteration count is set to 2048 and HMAC-SHA512 is used asthe pseudo-random function. The length of the derived key is 512 bits (= 64 bytes).
This seed can be later used to generate deterministic wallets using BIP-0032 orsimilar methods.
The conversion of the mnemonic sentence to a binary seed is completely independentfrom generating the sentence. This results in rather simple code; there are noconstraints on sentence structure and clients are free to implement their ownwordlists or even whole sentence generators, allowing for flexibility in wordlistsfor typo detection or other purposes.
Although using a mnemonic not generated by the algorithm described in 'Generating themnemonic' section is possible, this is not advised and software must compute achecksum for the mnemonic sentence using a wordlist and issue a warning if it isinvalid.
The described method also provides plausible deniability, because every passphrasegenerates a valid seed (and thus a deterministic wallet) but only the correct onewill make the desired wallet available.
Wordlists
Test vectors
The test vectors include input entropy, mnemonic and seed. Thepassphrase 'TREZOR' is used for all vectors.
