| - Unless you know the mnemonic phrase, and consequently, the seeds used to generate the MASTER keys. There is no way to relate the different dates. | ||
| - None of the different dates would have one key in common because segment `did-index` is part of the derivation Path of any key | ||

| - PRISM allowed key routation of the MASTER key. But if all possible MASTER keys are define by mnemonic phrase. There is no way to rotate the mnemonic phrase deterministically. |

@FabioPinheiro, can we rotate the master key by incrementing the key-index segment in the path?

Maybe it wasn't clear. Here the concern was your monarchic phrase is compromised phrase.
To secure the DID again you need to opt out of this proposal.

If method 29 represents a did:prism.
@yshyn-iohk You mention we should use something similar for the keys in did:peer. What number should we use?
