pub struct Secp256k1;
Expand description
K-256 (secp256k1) elliptic curve.
Specified in Certicom’s SECG in “SEC 2: Recommended Elliptic Curve Domain Parameters”:
https://www.secg.org/sec2-v2.pdf
The curve’s equation is y² = x³ + 7
over a ~256-bit prime field.
It’s primarily notable for usage in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, particularly in conjunction with the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA).
Trait Implementations
secp256k1 points are typically compressed.
Attempt to decompress an elliptic curve point
Convert the output of a digest algorithm into a Scalar
reduced
modulo n.
Attempts to parse the given EncodedPoint
as an SEC1-encoded AffinePoint
.
Returns
None
value if encoded_point
is not on the secp256k1 curve.
