# earthbucks_ecdsa

This is a fork of the RustCrypto project designed to use blake3 for
deterministic k and remove all unused dependencies for the EarthBucks project.

## About

This crate provides generic ECDSA support which can be used in the following
ways:

- Generic implementation of ECDSA usable with the following crates:
  - [`k256`] (secp256k1)
  - [`p256`] (NIST P-256)
  - [`p384`] (NIST P-384)
- Other crates which provide their own complete implementations of ECDSA can
  also leverage the types from this crate to export ECDSA functionality in a
  generic, interoperable way by leveraging [`ecdsa::Signature`] with the
  [`signature::Signer`] and [`signature::Verifier`] traits.

## ⚠️ Security Warning

The ECDSA implementation contained in this crate has never been independently
audited for security!

This crate contains a generic implementation of ECDSA which must be
instantiated using a separate crate providing a concrete implementation of
arithmetic for a particular curve. It's possible timing variability can exist
in concrete curve implementations, and thus this crate's security can only be
properly assessed for a specific elliptic curve.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

## Minimum Supported Rust Version

This crate requires **Rust 1.73** at a minimum.

We may change the MSRV in the future, but it will be accompanied by a minor
version bump.
