sorry my mouse went nuts

Love this in principle. I don't understand the mechanics of how the keys are generated. I tried a little bit but the math and the bitcoin derivation path things are...

Since this happens in somewhat trusted hardware and still has a root secret there which if compromised blows the whole thing.... how is this better than simple key delegation/revocation of...

In order to understand this PR sufficiently enough to think clearly about it and offer good feedback, one first needs to understand BIP32 (which while about "derivation paths" does not...

I think this probably belongs on NIP-42 as a POW parameter, e.g. relay sends `["AUTH", , "28"]` requesting a PoW of 28 in the response which must include that challenge....

I think that crypto is about right. I pointed out the lack of an HKDF a while back. As for protocol versioning, if the crypto is ever broken we can...
