+ BIP:+ +==Abstract== + +This BIP defines the derivation scheme for HD wallets using the P2WPKH-nested-in-P2SH ([[bip-0141.mediawiki|BIP 141]]) serialization format for segregated witness transactions. + +==Motivation== + +With the usage of P2WPKH-nested-in-P2SH ([[bip-0141.mediawiki#p2wpkh-nested-in-bip16-p2sh|BIP 141]]) transactions it is necessary to have a common derivation scheme. +It allows the user to use different HD wallets with the same masterseed and/or a single account seamlessly. + +Thus the user needs to create a dedicated segregate witness accounts, which ensures that only wallets compatible with this BIP +will detect the account and handle them appropriately. + +===Considerations=== +Two generally different approaches are possible for current BIP44 capable wallets: + + 1) Allow the user to use the same account(s) that they already uses, but add segregated witness encoded addresses to it + 1.1) Use the same public keys as defined in BIP44, but in addition to the normal P2PKH address also derive the P2SH address from it. + 1.2) Use the same account root, but branch off and derive different external and internal chain roots to derive dedicated public keys for the segregated witness addresses. + + 2) Create dedicated accounts only used for segregated witness addresses. + +The solutions from point 1 have a common disadvantage: if a user imports/recovers a BIP+ Title: Derivation scheme for P2WPKH-nested-in-P2SH based accounts + Author: Daniel Weigl + Status: Draft + Type: Informational + Created: 2016-05-19 +
