# Curve implementations
This repository contains implementations of some popular elliptic curves. The curve API implemented here matches the curve traits defined [here](https://github.com/arkworks-rs/algebra/blob/master/ec/src/lib.rs) in the [arkworks-rs/algebra](https://github.com/arkworks-rs/algebra) repository.
### BLS12-381 and embedded curves
