Ed25519 (tz1…)

An EdDSA signature scheme that uses SHA-512 and Curve25519. This is the most commonly used signature scheme in Tezos.

Secp256k1 (tz2…)

Secp256k1 describes the parameters used in the ECDSA algorithm. The default signature scheme in Bitcoin.

P-256 (tz3…)

A prime elliptic curve standardised by NIST. Also known as secp256r1 and considered a sibling to secp256k1.
