Package ec implements support for the elliptic curves needed for bitcoin. Bitcoin uses elliptic curve cryptography using koblitz curves (specifically secp256k1) for cryptographic functions. See http://www.secg.org/collateral/sec2_final.pdf for details on the standard. This package provides the data structures and functions implementing the crypto/elliptic Curve interface in order to permit using these curves with the standard crypto/ecdsa package provided with go. Helper functionality is provided to parse signatures and public keys from standard formats. It was designed for use with btcd, but should be general enough for other uses of elliptic curve crypto. It was originally based on some initial work by ThePiachu, but has significantly diverged since then.
