17## Usage
18
19Enter your BIP39 phrase into the 'BIP39 Phrase' field, or press
20'Generate Random Phrase'
21
22If required, set the derivation path, although the defaults are quite usable.
23
24See the table for a list of addresses generated from the phrase.
25
26Toggle columns to blank to easily copy/paste a single column of data, eg to
27import private keys into a wallet or supply someone with a list of addresses.
28
29The BIP32 keys can be used at [bip32.org](https://bip32.org) if desired.
