Hal Finney's explanation of secp256k1 "efficiently computable endomorphism" parameters used secp256k1 libraries, archived:


I implemented an optimized ECDSA verify for the secp256k1 curve used by Bitcoin, based on pages 125-129 of the Guide to Elliptic Curve Cryptography, by Hankerson, Menezes and Vanstone. I own the book but I also found a PDF on a Russian site which is more convenient.

secp256k1 uses the following prime for its x and y coordinates:

p = 0xfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffefffffc2f

Symmetric Encryption

The only way to encrypt today is authenticated encryption, or "AEAD". ChaCha20-Poly1305 is faster in software than AES-GCM. AES-GCM will be faster than ChaCha20-Poly1305 with AES-NI. Poly1305 is also easier than GCM for library designers to implement safely. AES-GCM is the industry standard.

Use, in order of preference:

1. The NaCl/libsodium default

Creating Releases with PGP Signatures

Aleksa Sarai

Creating a release of a free software project with PGP signatures is quite simple, especially if you have everything set up already. This guide uses GnuPG, but it should be roughly applicable to OpenPGP or other implementations. For completeness, I've included a (very) short introduction to how to create a PGP key and how PGP works.
