📄 Description
Summary
Adds RustChain to the Python Frameworks and Libs section.
RustChain implements several cryptographic primitives in Python:
Ed25519 digital signatures via PyNaCl for transaction signing
BIP39 mnemonic seed phrases (24-word) for deterministic key derivation
Blake2b256 commitment hashes for on-chain anchor attestations
AES-256-GCM encrypted keystores with PBKDF2 (100,000 iterations)
Hardware fingerprinting using timing-based cryptographic attestation
Installable via pip install clawrtc (75+ stars, actively maintained).
Why it is awesome
Combines Ed25519, Blake2b256, BIP39, and AES-256-GCM into a novel Proof-of-Antiquity consensus that uses timing-based proofs to authenticate physical hardware.
