Description: Python bindings to the Ed25519 public-key signature system.
        
        This offers a comfortable python interface to a C implementation of the
        Ed25519 public-key signature system (http://ed25519.cr.yp.to/), using the
        portable 'ref' code from the 'SUPERCOP' benchmarking suite.
        
        This system provides high (128-bit) security, short (32-byte) keys, short
        (64-byte) signatures, and fast (2-6ms) operation. Please see the README for
        more details.
        
        ## Not Recommended For New Applications: Use pynacl Instead
        
        For new applications, I recommend you use
        [`pynacl`](https://github.com/pyca/pynacl) instead of this repository.
        `PyNaCl` is larger and takes longer to build (it contains the complete
        NaCl/libsodium library, not just the ed25519 portion), but it is
        well-maintained by the diligent and conscientious PyCA team, whereas I've
        allowed this repository to languish. `PyNaCl` is also about 10-20 times
        faster. A guide for migration fron `python-ed25519` to `PyNaCl` is included
        below.
