A mnemonic is, in simple terms, a way of encoding a large number between 128 and 256 bits, as a list of 12 to 24 words that can be easily stored or memorized. Once a user has a mnemonic, Keyfork utilizes [BIP-0032] to derive cryptographic keys, which can be utilized by a variety of applications. ## Rust documentation Documentation is [automatically built][keyfork-rustdoc].
