The recent update to the BIP 85 repository, which clarifies child key generation, can cause existing wallets to fail in accessing funds created with previous BIP 85 keys.
Updating BIP 85 to better align with BIP 32 introduces a breaking change, meaning wallets could generate different keys from old seeds, potentially leading to funds being inaccessible.
BIP 85's intention was to allow users to manage multiple wallets more easily, creating child seeds derived from a master seed to avoid backup chaos.
Despite the intention of BIP 85 being to enhance safety and backup processes for users, the changes may inadvertently lead to significant risks of losing access to funds.
