Hardened derivation is used at this level. -It is crucial that the index is increased for each new wallet joined or private/public keys created; for both privacy and cryptographic purposes. +It is crucial that this level is increased for each new wallet joined or private/public keys created; for both privacy and cryptographic purposes. For example, in multisignature wallets, before sending a new key record to a coordinator, the wallet must increment the account' level. Before creating it's own single signature wallet, the account' level must again be incremented. This prevents key reuse - across single signature and multisignature wallets, across ECDSA and Schnorr signatures, and inbetween the same wallet types.
