seed phrase BIP32 only allows us 128-256 bits

Since we will have an irregular number of bits, we need to find a way to achieve this.

This has an issue..

BIP32 is used for random data, meaning the words will be randomly chosen. However, since we use semi-deterministic data (mostly 0, 1 etc), the words will be the same over and over again.

We could find a way to fix this (maybe xor with the random data, so we get random data, yet still able to extract our types)

isn't this already "fixed" by using AES as we thought about? https://github.com/bitmaelum/bitmaelum-suite/wiki/Account-(re)generation-and-mnemonic-seed

indeed.. i forgot already :p

This is implementation specific. For now we agree to use per-key seeds, which means we do not need a large seed string
