This repository presents a library for generating and managing hierarchical deterministic (HD) wallets. The core of this software includes an implementation of the BIP 39 and BIP 32 (Bitcoin Improvement Protocol) protocols for generating mnemonic seeds and wallets, respectively. The BIP 32 module contains the BIP32_Account base class for deriving HD wallets based on the BIP 32 specification. It's recommended that you use the BIP44, BIP49, and BIP84 subclasses to generate HD wallets. These class make use of the BIP32_Account core functionality but allow for deriving extended key pairs off of the 44', 49', and 84' purpose paths.
Install the bip-tools package in order to use this project programmatically.
pip install bip-tools>>> from biptools.bip44 import BIP44
# use a valid BIP39 mnemonic phrase
>>> phrase = 'cactus fringe crater danger leave pill endorse night clown change apology issue'
# create a wallet
>>> wallet = BIP44(phrase)
# save a BIP44 path for Ethereum (coin type 60')
>>> path = "m/44'/60'/0'/0"
# generate the first twenty hardened Ethereum addresses using the BIP44 path above
>>> addresses = wallet.gen_eth_addr_range(path, 20, True)
# print out the addresses
>>> for addr in addrs: print(addr)
