Enhancements:

• Derivation Path Ranges For Dumps: The derivation path supports ranges defined directly in the string format. For example:
  • A path like m/0-2 will be automatically unrolled into:

    m/0
    m/1
    m/2
    

  • Tuple-Based Ranges: Tuples can be passed directly to the derivation function for dynamic and programmatic control. For instance:

    BIP44Derivation(address=(0, 2))

    This will generate the derivation paths for accounts m/44'/0'/0'/0/0 through m/44'/0'/0'/0/2 inclusively.

    m/44'/0'/0'/0/0
    m/44'/0'/0'/0/1
    m/44'/0'/0'/0/2
    

• Modify BIP32 name into Custom derivation.

Closed issues:

• Support Uncompressed addresses for SLIP10-Secp256k1 ECC #58 #50
• Add BIP86 Hierarchical Deterministic and P2RT Address for Bitcoin and Qtum #27 #84
• Add BIP84 Hierarchical Deterministic for Litecoin #78
• Add new cryptocurrencies #45 #76 #83

This release marks a significant milestone in delivering a robust, versatile tool for developers and blockchain enthusiasts. For more https://hdwallet.readthedocs.io
