Invalid derivation path in bitcoin.com wallet

[Tritonio]

I tried to import a matter.cash wallet in bitcoin.com wallet and the m/44'/145'/0 derivation path is not accepted because it's "invalid". Is this normal? What's wrong with this path?

Also I read BIP32 but I cannot figure out what the single quotes in derivation paths mean. I assume that 44' would mean 2^31+44, in other words the 44th hardened derivation path, is my assumption correct?

Hi Tritonio,

145 (Bitcoin Cash), in m/44'/145'/0, is not supported in the Bitcoin.com wallet application (at least for now).

Thanks! I was searching for "quote" and not "apostrophe" so I never got this result. So my suspicion was correct according to this url linked from your link: https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-guide#hardened-keys

To make descriptions easy, many developers use the prime symbol to indicate hardened keys, so the first normal key (0x00) is 0 and the first hardened key (0x80000000) is 0´.

I hope the bitcoin.com wallet add support for these paths in the future. I would be nice to be able to import my matter.cash wallet there as well. Would it make sense to email support about it as a feature request or is it enough that I posted about it here?

Thanks for the very quick help!
