See: + - Header file `include/secp256k1_ellswift.h` which defines the new API. + - Document `doc/ellswift.md` which explains the mathematical background of the scheme. + - The [paper](https://eprint.iacr.org/2022/759) on which the scheme is based. + ## [0.3.2] - 2023-05-13 We strongly recommend updating to 0.3.2 if you use or plan to use GCC >=13 to compile libsecp256k1. When in doubt, check the GCC version using `gcc -v`.
