The purpose of this spike is answer the following:

How should we take some secret data and use it to derive:

  • transient keys within the various protocols
  • the node identifying key

How should we store this secret?
How should the generation happen? Automated or Manual?
Should we provide backup strategies (ie, mnemonic)

hint: look at other projects an summarise the best approaches
