Alright then, maybe point out what's wrong? It's beyond me how someone capable enough to dissect the above document, can be too incompetent to write a simple and useful reply in one go; instead, one has to hold his hand…

Fancy words that describe the process. If you're not willing to help, you might as well stay away altogether.

Hm, alright.

Help me clarify this. Entropy just means randomness, right? A CSPRNG gathers it from different sources. What do you think?

For sure! I'm onto that. You’re right about the HMAC stuff; that's how the master private key is derived. I'm working on getting that in there too.

Not cool, dude. Just tell me if the 8-min read is correct. Instead of links and vague ramblings, give me some actual feedback.

Thanks! I know other bit lengths exist, but since they aren't commonly used, I left them out. But is it wrong to mention them? Appreciate the input! 🤠

Why not just support for once? It's a tech section. You guys throw around BIPs that are way harder to grasp than what I wrote. No wonder people think you’re clueless.

Finished my write-up on master seed generation for HD wallets. Looking for feedback on content and accuracy. 🤠 Planning to refine it more later, but I need a review for now.

Lol, right? This stuff just keeps unfolding... I wonder if I'm heading in the right direction with this summary?

Just trying to put together my own notes here, thanks for the input though... your expertise in being a jerk is noted. Typical behavior on this forum.

So, how does this extended private key thing work? I think it comes from the root key using a hash function like HMAC-SHA512. You end up with a value that has both a chain code and the extended private key in it.

I bought some Bitcoin today at 70K euro. Not checking my wallets. It’s a rough time for crypto and stocks, only my bonds are doing okay.
