curve25519-kotlin

A synthetic Kotlin implementation of Curve25519. A fast Elliptic Curve - Diffie-Hellman function, including x25519 key pairs, shared secrets, x25519 signatures, and the XVEdDSA VRF signature algorithm backed by Java code. Based on Signal curve25519-java.

This implementation doesn't use a native C curve25519-donna and only relies on pure Java code of Signal. Thus, this is a downgrade version of Signal curve25519-java in terms of dynamic curve provider.

Obtaining an instance

The caller initialize a singleton instance of Curve25519.

Generating a Curve25519 keypair:

Calculating a shared secret:

Calculating a signature:

Todo

  • Add curve25519-donna C implementation [JNI] (Optional)
  • Add option to use BouncyCastle's Curve25519 DJB implementation.
  • Add native C jni implmentation of signal.

Credits

This implementation is derived from the original work of Open Whisper System Signal curve25519-java
