Ah thank you. That makes sense
Oh and I am sorry, I meant to post this in general bitcoin and not in dev.
Topic: Simple deterministic question (Read 629 times)
Mathematically I can't think of any. Means if the seed is discovered, screwed - but isn't that always the case with deterministic ??
Not just the seed, but you are screwed if any PK in the sequence is discovered because you can work your way forwards and backwards. This is not the general case with deterministic, where it may only be possible to work your way forward.
Say I generate the following private ECDSA key :
Is there anything wrong with creating derivatives by just adding 1? e.g.

If there is a concept I am not understanding, where can I read more about it?
Thank you.
