| 1. Encode `seed` as UTF-8. | ||

we should use HMAC-SHA256 construction like we do in other NUTS (e.g. 12 or 13)

| 1. Encode `seed` as UTF-8. | ||
| 2. Compute `secret_key = SHA256(seed)`. | ||
| 3. Interpret `secret_key` as a 32-byte big-endian integer. It **MUST** be a valid secp256k1 secret key in the range `1..n-1`, where `n` is the order of the secp256k1 curve. |

What happens if it does not fit? Maybe introduce a counter to the HMAC above and retry with ctr = 1, 2, 3, etc.?
