ECDSA Optimization

Definition

ECDSA Optimization refers to techniques designed to enhance the efficiency and performance of the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm. This algorithm is widely used in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin for transaction signing and verification. Optimizations can involve reducing computational load, speeding up signature generation or verification times, or decreasing the size of signatures. Such improvements are critical for improving blockchain throughput and reducing transaction costs.
