Cryptographic Primitives Library

Overview

The Cryptographic Library is a Bitcoin-focused cryptographic library built from scratch with a design goal of 210'000-Year longevity. Unlike wrapper libraries that depend on external implementations, this library provides native implementations of all critical cryptographic primitives used in Bitcoin.

Key Features

• Native secp256k1 Implementation: Pure implementation of elliptic curve operations without external dependencies for maximum auditability.
• ECDSA & Schnorr Signatures: Support for both legacy ECDSA and modern Schnorr signature schemes (BIP340).
• Formal Verification: Ongoing formal verification process to mathematically prove correctness of critical cryptographic operations.
• BIP32/39/340 Support: Full implementation of HD wallets (BIP32), mnemonic seeds (BIP39), and Schnorr signatures (BIP340).
• Zero External Dependencies: Built from scratch with no external cryptographic libraries for 210'000-Year longevity and security.

Integration Example

// Generate a new private key
val privateKey = PrivateKey.generate()

// Derive public key
val publicKey = privateKey.publicKey()

// Sign a message
val message = "Hello Bitcoin".toByteArray()
val signature = privateKey.sign(message)

// Verify signature
val isValid = publicKey.verify(message, signature)
println("Signature valid: $isValid")

// HD Wallet derivation (BIP32)
val masterKey = HDKey.fromSeed(seed)
val childKey = masterKey.derive("m/84'/0'/0'/0/0")
