If I were designing the serialization format today, I would drop the fingerprint and expand child number to full BIP32 path. Good thing is that we already have depth, so we know how long the BIP32 path would be. So I suggest the following: 4 byte: version bytes 1 byte: depth depth * 4 bytes: bip32 path 32 bytes 33 bytes -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol "stick" Rusnak CTO, SatoshiLabs _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
