SLIPs Reference — SatoshiLabs Improvement Proposals Indexed

A complete index of every SLIP (SatoshiLabs Improvement Proposal) — the wallet and multicoin standards that complement Bitcoin BIPs: number, title and status. Free CSV/JSON + REST under CC BY 4.0.

Quick answer

A SLIP (SatoshiLabs Improvement Proposal) is a wallet-and-multicoin standard that complements Bitcoin's BIPs: where BIPs define the Bitcoin protocol itself, SLIPs register the conventions hardware and software wallets rely on. This reference indexes 25 SLIPs with title and status. The ones you meet most: SLIP-0039 (Shamir secret-sharing seed backups), SLIP-0044 (registered coin types — the per-chain index every BIP-44 wallet uses), SLIP-0132 (HD version bytes — the xpub / ypub / zpub prefixes), and SLIP-0010 (key derivation beyond secp256k1).

BIPs define Bitcoin; SLIPs standardize how wallets handle keys, backups and multiple coins. SLIP-0039 (Shamir), SLIP-0044 (coin types) and SLIP-0132 (xpub/ypub/zpub) are the most-referenced. Always confirm against the satoshilabs/slips repo before building.
