BIP39 Compute Binary Seed from Mnemonic

See more Encryption Examples

Creates a binary seed from a mnemonic. Uses the PBKDF2 function with a mnemonic sentence (in UTF-8 NFKD) used as the password and the string "mnemonic" + passphrase (again in UTF-8 NFKD) used as the salt. The iteration count is set to 2048 and HMAC-SHA512 is used as the pseudo-random function. The length of the derived key is 512 bits (= 64 bytes). Swift
