A vital distinction in wallets lies in key derivation. They're either nondeterministic (random keys) or deterministic (derived from a seed). Nondeterministic wallets, often a collection of random keys, are cumbersome for backup and usage, challenging address reuse principles.

Deterministic wallets, on the other hand, link all keys to a master seed, streamlining backup and management.

Hierarchical Deterministic (from now on HD) wallets take this a step further, using a hierarchical structure for flexibility and organizational purposes. Seeds, often represented by mnemonic codes, enhance usability
