Purpose of this project is to provide CryptoCurrency and Cryptography related algorithms using the latest C# language features for use in BlockChain development. Initial goals are to cover some key algorithms in use in Bitcoin and Ethereum BlockChains.
Currently targeting C# 8 and .NET Core 3.1 only
| Interface | Implementation | Description |
|---|---|---|
| IECDsa | Elliptical Curve Digital Signature Algorithms | |
| Secp2561kDotNet | Bitcoin ECDSA algo. | |
| MsftECDsaCng | Microsofts ECDSA algo. | |
| IHasher | Hashing Algorithms | |
| MsftHasher | Microsofts SHA256 and RIPEMD160 hash algo. |
Library is optimized to use span and stack allocations over heap objects for performance
Sample code to get a P2PKH bitcoin address from a private key:
// Example address from https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Technical_background_of_version_1_Bitcoin_addresses
var privateKey = "18e14a7b6a307f426a94f8114701e7c8e774e7f9a47e2c2035db29a206321725".HexToBytes();
IECDsa ecdsa = new Secp256k1DotNet();
var key = ecdsa.CreateKey(privateKey);
string p2pkhAddress = Address.GetP2PKHAddress(key, ecdsa, Bitcoin.Network.MainNet.P2PKHAddressVersion);
// returns "1PMycacnJaSqwwJqjawXBErnLsZ7RkXUAs"Project is currently in development - no published packages at this time.
