However, its signing flavor, Ed25519, is described in RFC 8032: This document describes elliptic curve signature scheme Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA). The algorithm is instantiated with recommended parameters for the edwards25519 and edwards448 curves. An example implementation and test vectors are provided. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8032 Its use is standardized for DKIM signatures by RFC 8463.
