This toolchain uses entropy generated from an agent controlling a bip32 seed This toolchain uses a bip32 seed loaded into an agent to generate deterministic
to generate keypairs, ensuring the keys are deterministic and contextually and unique keypairs. This ensures only the agent has control over the mnemonic
unique. itself, and other components can simply request deterministic data.
