SECP256K1 vector creation
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
This page documents the code that was used to generate the SECP256K1 elliptic
|
|
curve test vectors as well as code used to verify them against another
|
|
implementation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creation
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
The vectors are generated using a `pure Python ecdsa`_ implementation. The test
|
|
messages and combinations of algorithms are derived from the NIST vector data.

|
Verification
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
``cryptography`` was modified to support the SECP256K1 curve. Then
|
|
the following python script was run to generate the vector files.
