Create secp256k1 key

[h3xag0nx]

Hello, I just installed Cosmian KMS today and plan to use it to store a few Ethereum wallets. However, when I tried using the UI to create an ECDSA key pair, I noticed there’s no option for secp256k1. From what I’ve read, secp256k1 isn’t considered a standard curve (I’m still learning, so please go easy on me). Is there any way to use Cosmian to generate an Ethereum wallet? Thank you!

Hello,
I'm sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
You are correct secp256k1 is not part of the curves we support. We classically support FIPS certified curves and the "Bernstein" curves (most notably Curve 25519)
Adding support for curves used by cryptocurrencies MAY not be a big deal. Let me look into it and get back to you

Support of secp256k1 will be added in next release. WIP in this #511
