As for the idea of having a versioning on mnemonic seeds, I believe it would be a very useful feature indeed. How about opening a new, separate, topic about it?

Thanks for your feedback, I fixed what you suggested. As for the purpose how should we move on? We would be inclined to use 46, but of course we are open to any other number.

This will lead to old UTXOs not being recognized by NEW wallets, because at some point new wallets will not care about implementing old standards. The only way to address this is to get out of bip39 and bip43, and to include a version number in the mnemonic seed. ___ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev

I suggest just referring to SLIP 44 directly. You're missing the Backward Compatibility and Copyright sections.
