Split BIP39 mnemonics using Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme

Guild

0. To generate mnemonic with 'bip39' lib.

   import { generateMnemonic } from 'bip39';
   
   const generated_mnemonic = generateMnemonic();

1. To generate M/N mnemonic shares

   To generate M shares and require N to recover the mnemonic

   Accepts a BIP39 mnemonic and returns a Shares map, in which the keys are the share id's, and the values are the BIP39 mnemonics.

   import { recoverMnemonic } from "bip39-sss-js-sdk"
   
   splitMnemonic(example_mnemonic, 3, 2);
   splitMnemonic(example_mnemonic, 5, 3);
   splitMnemonic(example_mnemonic, m, n);

2. To recover mnemonic

   import { splitMnemonic } from "bip39-sss-js-sdk"
   
   recoverMnemonic(split_1_3_5_for_generated_5_3)

3. To get address or private key with 'web3'

   import { mnemonicToEntropy } from 'bip39';
   web3.eth.accounts.create(mnemonicToEntropy(generated_mnemonic))
