I agree. Especially when multiple chains are combined (multisig) for P2SH usage, defining things like a gap limit becomes impossible without knowing some metadata. However, perhaps it is possible to define something like "BIP44 import-compatible", meaning that the application doesn't actually support all of BIP44 features, but does guarantee not losing any funds when imported? Similar things could be done for other purpose types. -- Pieter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start Your Social Network Today - Download eXo Platform Build your Enterprise Intranet with eXo Platform Software Java Based Open Source Intranet - Social, Extensible, Cloud Ready Get Started Now And Turn Your Intranet Into A Collaboration Platform http://p.sf.net/sfu/ExoPlatform _______________________________________________ Bitcoin-development mailing list Bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development
