Introduction

A Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallet is the term used to describe a wallet which uses a seed to derive public and private keys. HD wallets were implemented as a Bitcoin standard with BIP 32. Before this, most wallets generated unrelated keys each time a user required a new address. This format, called a Just-a-Bunch-of-Keys (JBOK) wallet, required the wallet to backup each key individually, a significant inconvenience for both wallets and users. HD wallets can be backed up by storing a single seed of 64 bytes.
