Derivation Path Inspector

Verify how Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallets map your seed phrase to different script types. Scan custom derivation paths and convert extended public key formats.

Cryptographic Security Warning

Entering your seed phrase or private key on any website is highly risky. This tool runs 100% client-side inside your browser sandbox using Ethers.js. No data is sent over the network. If you are inspecting high-value keys, we recommend cloning this repository and running the application completely offline on an air-gapped machine.

Understanding Derivation Mismatches

If your hardware wallet is displaying a zero balance but you know the blockchain has transactions, it is almost certainly a path configuration error. Common scenarios:
