We're happy to reveal Web3Auth's development of a new feature that supports key derivation, allowing users to derive multiple private keys from a single account for improved asset organization. This post explores key derivation techniques in MPC-based key management systems, where the secret master key does not exist in one place but is distributed across multiple devices. We'll also detail our approach to implementing MPC-friendly key derivation in Web3Auth.
