#### 1.5.1. Account generation
|
||||
|
||||
Generating a user account in Status involves 3 steps:
|
||||
|
||||
- Generation of a random seed, and the respective account;
|
||||
- Generation of a X3DH bundle. This prekey bundle will become part of the user's contact code;
|
||||
- Registration with Push Notification platform.
|

See [Account specification](./x9.md)

### 2.2. Prekeys
|

|

Every client initially generates some key material which is stored locally:
|
||||
- Identity keypair based on secp256k1 - $IK$;
|
||||
- A signed prekey based on secp256k1 - $SPK$;
|
||||
- A prekey signature - <i>Sig($IK$, Encode($SPK$))</i>
|
||||
- Identity keypair based on secp256k1 - `IK`
|
||||
- A signed prekey based on secp256k1 - `SPK`
|
||||
- A prekey signature - `Sig(IK, Encode(SPK))`

|
||||
A `contact-code` is a protobuf `Bundle` message, encoded in `JSON` and converted to their `base64` string representation.
|
||||
|
||||
Prekey bundles are exchanged through QR codes, contact codes, 1:1 or public chat messages. *We will be updating this document with information about bundle exchange through [ENS](https://ens.domains/) and [Swarm](https://swarm-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction.html) as work progresses and technologies become more usable.*
|
||||
Prekey bundles are can be extracted from any user's messages, or found via searching for their specific contact code topic, `{IK}-contact-code`.

TODO: See below on bundle retrieval, this seems like enhancement and parameter for recommendation

### 2.3. Bundle retrieval

TODO: Potentially move this completely over to [Trust Establishment](./x5.md)

|

X3DH works by having client apps create and make available a bundle of prekeys (the X3DH bundle) that can later be requested by other interlocutors when they wish to start a conversation with a given user.
