In this commit, we strip all of the local `replace ... => ../...` directives that were introduced as part of #1825 (the v2 module restructuring), now that proper tags exist for every freshly carved-out submodule. Every in-tree go.mod is pinned to the newly published tags: chainhash/v2.0.0, wire/v2.0.0, chaincfg/v2.0.0, address/v2.0.0, txscript/v2.0.0, btcutil/v2.0.0, psbt/v2.0.0, and btcec is bumped to v2.5.0 since it now depends on chainhash/v2 (previously chaincfg/chainhash). While here, we also unify the Go toolchain to 1.25 across every submodule so the workspace resolves a consistent set of language features. Finally, we bump the main btcd version to v0.26.0-beta.rc1 in preparation for the upcoming release candidate. |

btcec
Package btcec implements elliptic curve cryptography needed for working with Bitcoin (secp256k1 only for now). It is designed so that it may be used with the standard crypto/ecdsa packages provided with go. A comprehensive suite of test is provided to ensure proper functionality. Package btcec was originally based on work from ThePiachu which is licensed under the same terms as Go, but it has significantly diverged since then. The btcsuite developers original is licensed under the liberal ISC license.
Although this package was primarily written for btcd, it has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to use secp256k1 elliptic curve cryptography.
Installation and Updating
$ go install -u -v github.com/btcsuite/btcd/btcec/v2
Examples
-
Sign Message
Demonstrates signing a message with a secp256k1 private key that is first parsed form raw bytes and serializing the generated signature. -
Verify Signature
Demonstrates verifying a secp256k1 signature against a public key that is first parsed from raw bytes. The signature is also parsed from raw bytes.
License
Package btcec is licensed under the copyfree ISC License except for btcec.go and btcec_test.go which is under the same license as Go.
