Comment on ChaCha20- and Poly1305-based Cipher Suites for TLSComments−devx12yBy Google's Adam Langley. Nice. I know he's been a big supporter of DJB's curves.−tptacek12yHe is, but just for what it's worth, ChaCha20 (and Salsa20, from which it's derived) and Poly1305 aren't based on elliptic curves, and the TLS ECC features aren't based on Curve25519/Ed25519.
