HD Wallet Recovery

Mnemonics generate deterministic wallets - the same mnemonic always produces the same wallet: 
// These will produce identical wallets
const wallet1 = await align.blockchain.wallets.createFromMnemonic(mnemonic);
const wallet2 = await align.blockchain.wallets.createFromMnemonic(mnemonic);

console.log(wallet1.address === wallet2.address); // true

​
Error Handling

import { AlignValidationError } from "@tolbel/align";

try {
  const wallet = await align.blockchain.wallets.createFromMnemonic(
    "invalid mnemonic phrase"
  );
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof AlignValidationError) {
    console.error("Invalid mnemonic:", error.errors);
    // [{ message: "Invalid mnemonic phrase" }]
  }
}
Security: Never share your mnemonic phrase. Anyone with access to it has full control of your wallet and funds.
