1. CryptoExperts is like a European version of Cryptography Research; it’s people from Gemalto, INRIA, Antoine Joux, Lous Goubin, their grad students, &c. They’re not randos.
2. Their paper doesn’t claim anything is wrong with 25519. They’re just proposing a random Edwards curve alternative to 25519, with a cute trick to generate credible random parameters. Their paper rejects the Brainpool-y parameters-from-math-constants approach, citing Bernstein’s BADA55 argument, in favor of pure random parameters. -- Thomas Ptacek On February 24, 2016 at 12:20:05 PM, Salz, Rich (rs...@akamai.com) wrote: > > http://cryptoexperts.github.io/million-dollar-curve/ Who are these folks? What is wrong with25519 and/or 448? My answers: I don't know and nothing. So why do I want this? _______________________________________________ Curves mailing list Curves@moderncrypto.org https://moderncrypto.org/mailman/listinfo/curves
