<p>Let's consider a Yoroi test wallet with the following seed phrase:
<code>maximum vacuum toe conduct jazz tray romance crawl fossil wisdom disease crazy mountain bird discover</code></p>
<p>The first address generated by Yoroi is then:
<code>addr1q96a42g6ajjhu5gfw8gch2w0vflfxkqw53pxyufgacscal5f0vdmnq834g9upwe2g0cfzwemmwvfnyawg89g8xeqx4kstanhan</code></p>
<p>However, if I derive the first address using the <a href="https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-addresses" rel="noreferrer">cardano-addresses tool</a> like this (where <code>phrase.prv</code> holds the seed phrase):</p>
<pre><code>./cardano-address key from-recovery-phrase Shelley &lt; phrase.prv &gt; root.xsk
cat root.xsk | ./cardano-address key child 1852H/1815H/0H | ./cardano-address key public --with-chain-code &gt; root.xvk
cat root.xvk | ./cardano-address key child 0/0 | ./cardano-address  address payment --network-tag mainnet
</code></pre>
<p>I get the following address: <code>addr1v96a42g6ajjhu5gfw8gch2w0vflfxkqw53pxyufgacscals656txx</code></p>
<p>For direct comparison:
<code>addr1q96a42g6ajjhu5gfw8gch2w0vflfxkqw53pxyufgacscal5f0vdmnq834g9upwe2g0cfzwemmwvfnyawg89g8xeqx4kstanhan</code>
<code>addr1v96a42g6ajjhu5gfw8gch2w0vflfxkqw53pxyufgacscals656txx</code></p>
<p>So the first part of the addresses is identical (except for the first letter after the prefix), but there seems to be missing something. What am I doing wrong?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

Why is there a small difference between addresses derived by the cardano-address tool and Yoroi?

There is indeed missing a part of the address: the delegation part. For more information, please refer to this partially duplicate question and CIP-0019.
