The current blockchain has problems such as a wide variety of chains, independent design rules for each identity account, and different cryptographic curve signature algorithms. If the traditional private key mode is used to manage multiple accounts on the same chain or multiple accounts on different chains Identity requires users to perform multiple backups, and faces complex management and authentication problems. Therefore, the design of hierarchical deterministic schemes and related proposals have emerged. The IEEE P3209 standard will unite many blockchain technology providers to jointly formulate international standards for hierarchical deterministic schemes, output uniform and standardized cryptographic derivation rules between different chains, and determine multiple blockchains through mutual signature and self-certification of private keys of different chains. The same identity corresponding to the public and private keys on the chain.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
