Introduction

This pure Nim implementation of Barreto-Naehrig pairing-friendly elliptic curve.

This is a pairing cryptography library written in pure Nim. It makes use of the Barreto-Naehrig (BN) curve construction from [BCTV2015] to provide two cyclic groups G<sub>1</sub> and G<sub>2</sub>, with an efficient bilinear pairing:

e: G<sub>1</sub> × G<sub>2</sub> → G<sub>T</sub>

This code is adaptation of bn library.

Security warnings

This library, like other pairing cryptography libraries implementing this construction, is not resistant to side-channel attacks.
