What Is the Purpose of the BIP32 Standard?

BIP32 (Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 32) is the technical standard that defines the structure and algorithm for Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallets. Its purpose is to create a standardized method for generating a tree-like structure of keys from a single seed.

This standard ensures interoperability, meaning a wallet created with one software can be recovered by any other BIP32-compatible software.
