Yes, I plan to submit as a BIP. I was just letting it sit for a while for others to consider. I was also considering to split the BIP into two. One for the the entropy derivation, and the Applications section would be another BIP. This would be akin to how BIP32 is the basis for derivation

[bitcoin-dev] RFC: Deterministic Entropy From BIP32 Keychains

I would like to present a proposal for discussion and peer review. It aims to solve the problem of "too many seeds and too many backups" due to the many reasons stipulated in the proposal text.

Chris, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I agree there are wide considerations surrounding key handling and storage. I dont think my proposal interferes with that perspective any more than BIP32 itself would. How keys are handled is a separate matter than the cryptography

I have completely revised the wording of this proposal I hope to be clearer in explaining the motivation and methodology. https://gist.github.com/ethankosakovsky/268c52f018b94bea29a6e809381c05d6 Ethan ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ On Friday, March 20, 2020 4:44 PM, Ethan Kosakovsky via
