With 2.2.33 is is not possible to create a single ecc key-pair that can do "sign" and "encrypt".
I know that "ed25519" and "cv25519" are different algorithms, but from my limited understanding the same key-pair should be usable for both encrypting and signing in theory? Can someone point me to an explanation why it isn't done so here?
