kandi X-RAY | secp256k1 Summary
Optimized C library for ECDSA signatures and secret/public key operations on curve secp256k1. This library is intended to be the highest quality publicly available library for cryptography on the secp256k1 curve. However, the primary focus of its development has been for usage in the Bitcoin system and usage unlike Bitcoin’s may be less well tested, verified, or suffer from a less well thought out interface. Correct usage requires some care and consideration that the library is fit for your application’s purpose. Features: * secp256k1 ECDSA signing/verification and key generation. * Additive and multiplicative tweaking of secret/public keys. * Serialization/parsing of secret keys, public keys, signatures. * Constant time, constant memory access signing and public key generation. * Derandomized ECDSA (via RFC6979 or with a caller provided function.) * Very efficient implementation. * Suitable for embedded systems. * Optional module for public key recovery. * Optional module for ECDH key exchange. Experimental features have not received enough scrutiny to satisfy the standard of quality of this library but are made available for testing and review by the community. The APIs of these features should not be considered stable.

I have tried installing truffle on windows powershell with Execution Policy set to "ByPass".
And installing a older version but noting has worked any help is appreciated.
I have node v16.13.0. And have not had any problems before with installing packages.
As well I have the latest version of Virtual studio code.

Similar problem -> node-gyp configure got "gyp ERR! find VS"
Lot of ppl had similiar issue and this command helped
If nothing will help i can recommend u https://remix.ethereum.org/ its online IDE that simulate everything. (I have good experience with it on Ether and solidity)
QUESTION
I'm using Java 8, trying to post https third party (other subdomain works), works with postman, but using RestTemplate
throws SSLHandshakeException
ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-28 at 18:33Please, be aware that the cipher suites described in your debug output doesn't show the cipher suite that was actually used by openssl
, ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
. In fact, they don't include any cipher suite that requires AES 256. It may not be of relevance, but it may be a symptom of any misconfiguration, and can explain why the handshake is failing. As indicated in the Oracle documentation when describing Java 8 supported cipher suites:
Cipher suites that use AES_256 require installation of the JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files.
As a consequence, please, be sure you installed and properly configured the JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files.
As indicated by @dave_thompson_085 in his excellent comment, only Oracle Java 8 below 8u161 requires adding the unlimited policy, as stated in Appendix C of the aforementioned Oracle documentation.
The JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files are bundled into the JDK since JDK 8u151, but the unlimited
policy was not defined as the default one since JDK 8u161.
In JDK 8u151 or 8u152, as stated in one of the previous cited links, and explained as well by @dave_thompson_085 - thank you very much again, in order to make the unlimited
version of the JCE the one that should be used, you need to define the system property crypto.policy
. From the docs:
This release introduces a new feature whereby the JCE jurisdiction policy files used by the JDK can be controlled via a new Security property. In older releases, JCE jurisdiction files had to be downloaded and installed separately to allow unlimited cryptography to be used by the JDK. The download and install steps are no longer necessary. To enable unlimited cryptography, one can use the new
crypto.policy
Security property. If the new Security property (crypto.policy
) is set in thejava.security
file, or has been set dynamically by using theSecurity.setProperty()
call before the JCE framework has been initialized, that setting will be honored. By default, the property will be undefined. If the property is undefined and the legacy JCE jurisdiction files don't exist in the legacylib/security
directory, then the default cryptographic level will remain at 'limited'. To configure the JDK to use unlimited cryptography, set thecrypto.policy
to a value of 'unlimited'. See the notes in thejava.security
file shipping with this release for more information.
The issue is not present in OpenJDK.
As an alternative solution, as suggested in this related SO question, probably using an alternate provider like BouncyCastle could be of help as well.

Answered 2022-Feb-13 at 16:24The results of both codes differ because of two issues:
In the Go Code, the private key is derived incorrectly:
In the Python code, the path
m/44'/118'/0'/0/0'
is used, as the output ofhdwallet.path()
shows. In the Go code, in contrast, the pathm/44'/118'/0'/0/0
is used, as shown by the output ofpath.String()

Answered 2022-Feb-10 at 18:07I was struggling with this for a while too. I found out that it is some weird issue with jest and the "cjs" modules. Don't know exactly why it's like this but after some research I found this post (Jest won't transform the module - SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module) that gave me a clue of what I needed to do. Below is my jest.config.js file that solves this issue:
QUESTION
I'm trying to generate Dogecoin addresses. The generated addresses have the same length as valid Dogecoin addresses generated by RPC-API getnewaddress and the same length, but they do not work. They are not valid.
Here are the steps:
- Public key from secp256k1
- Apply SHA256, then RIPEMD-160 to the result of SHA256
- Add 0x1E (Version for Dogecoin) at the begin of the RIPEMD-160 result
- Apply SHA256 twice to the encrypted pubkey for the checksum hash
- Add first 4 bytes of the checksum hash (8 characters) to the end of the encrypted pub key
- Apply BASE56
That generates a 34 characters address starting with D which looks very authentic, but none of them is valid. Why?
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-03 at 22:08It turned out there was a byte missing.
QUESTION
I am trying to run RSK blockchain node RSKj on a Windows machine. When I run this line in a terminal:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-06 at 02:26This is actually a warning, not an error, though it may seem like the latter. This means that on your OS and architecture, that particular library does not exist, so it falls back to a different implementation (using a non-native library). In this case, the block verification is slower, but otherwise RSKj should continue to function properly.
Something that might help you to overcome the “slowness” of the initial sync is the --import
flag. See the reference in the CLI docs for RSKj.
Also you can send an RPC to ensure that your node is running OK. Run the following curl
command in your terminal

QUESTION
I'm switching from the pure Python ecdsa
library to the much faster coincurve
library for signing data. I would also like to switch to coincurve
for verifying the signatures (including the old signatures created by the ecdsa
library).
It appears that signatures created with ecdsa
are not (always?) valid in coincurve
. Could someone please explain why this is not working? Also, it seems that cryptography
library is able to validate both ecdsa
signatures and coincurve
signatures without issues, consistently.
What is even more confusing, if you run below script a few times, is that sometimes it prints point 3 and other times it does not. Why would coincurve
only occasionally find the signature valid?
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Dec-25 at 14:41Bitcoin and the coincurve library use canonical signatures while this is not true for the ecdsa library.
What does canonical signature mean?
In general, if (r,s)
is a valid signature, then (r,s') := (r,-s mod n)
is also a valid signature (n
is the order of the base point).
A canonical signature uses the value s' = -s mod n = n - s
instead of s
, i.e. the signature (r, n-s)
, if s > n/2
, s. e.g. here.
All signatures from the ecdsa library that were not been successfully validated by the coincurve library in your test program have an s > n/2
and thus are not canonical, whereas those that were successfully validated are canonical.
So the fix is simply to canonize the signature of the ecdsa library, e.g.:

Been playing around with the crypto module in Nodejs and using crypto.generateKeyPairSync. When running a short verification test with 'ec' keys, this evaluates as expected, but when testing with 'ed25519' generated keys, this never evaluates to true.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Dec-19 at 09:37NodeJS provides two implementations for signing/verifying, the Sign
/Verify
class (since v0.1.92) and crypto.sign()
/crypto.verify()

Signing and verifying with Ed25519 (and Ed448) is possible with crypto.sign()
and crypto.verify()
