Overview#
Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) is a Digital Signature scheme defined in RFC 8032 using a variant of Schnorr signature based on Twisted Edwards curves.Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm is designed to be faster than existing Digital Signature schemes without sacrificing security.
Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm was developed by a team including Daniel J. Bernstein, Niels Duif, Tanja Lange, Peter Schwabe, and Bo-Yin Yang.
The reference implementation is Public Domain software.
