BIP85 Child Mnemonic Generator

This project is a Node.js application that uses BIP85 (Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 85) to derive a child mnemonic from a master mnemonic. BIP85 allows the derivation of entropy from a master seed, which can then be used for various purposes, such as creating child mnemonics in a standardized and recoverable way. This application specifically creates a new mnemonic phrase (12 or 24 words) using the entropy derived from the master mnemonic.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• You have installed Node.js (https://nodejs.org/)
• You have a basic understanding of cryptocurrency wallet mnemonic phrases.

Installing

To install the dependencies, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository or download the source code from the repository.
2. Navigate to the project directory in your terminal.
3. Run npm install to install the Node.js dependencies.

Usage

To use the BIP85 Child Mnemonic Generator, follow these steps:

1. Open your terminal.
2. Change the directory to where your project is located.
3. Run the program using Node.js with the following syntax:

node index.js "seed phrase here" 2

Will output a 24 word mnemonic phrase for BIP85 index 2.
