I am trying to write a multiple currency hd wallet. I am using javascript libraries but I feel unsafe as I am new to most cryptography concepts and terms like elliptic curve, seeds, entropy etc.

I can not be a cryptography expert but I want to learn terms and concepts at least to know what it is doing when I am using third party libraries.

Can you recommend any books or online resources?

  • Thanks Tony. I know the book. But except chapter 4, it is more about blockchain and bitcoin rather than cryptography. – Cem Karay Jan 27 '18 at 11:37
  • ah ok. I don't really have any good cryptography book recommendations but I am also interested in the answer to this question. I just figured Chapter 5 would help with the HD wallet part of your project :) – Tony Rizko Jan 27 '18 at 11:54
