rust-secp256k1
is a wrapper around libsecp256k1,
a C library by Peter Wuille for producing ECDSA signatures using the SECG curve
secp256k1
. This library
- exposes type-safe Rust bindings for all
libsecp256k1
functions - implements key generation
- implements deterministic nonce generation via RFC6979
- implements many unit tests, adding to those already present in
libsecp256k1
- makes no allocations (except in unit tests) for efficiency and use in freestanding implementations
