Hierarchy for deterministic wallets supporting decentralized identities is based off the 302 as the value for purpose.
This is a list of different identity types under the 302 purpose. Some identities exists under other purposes and those are also included in this BCIP.
Having a known list of identity types that the Blockcore ecosystem supports.
These are the registered identity types for usage in level 2 of BIP44 described in chapter "Coin type".
All these constants are used as hardened derivation.
