SDC takes solution from Eclipse | Bitcointalksearch.org

Eclipse will soon be the market leader and overtake SDC. Clearly superior developers with legit experience here.

It looks like SDC went live with our solution for hashToEC.

They switched from creating a new generator, discussed here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14079014

What's this mean?

We are the leaders kids.

This is the heart of our algo, pushed publicly 9 days ago:

Code:

    for (j = 0; j < k; ++j)
    {
        if (j == 0)
            x = u;
        else
        {
            secp256k1_fe_set_int(&i, j);
            secp256k1_fe_add(&x, &i);
        }
        if (secp256k1_ge_set_xquad_var(&Q, &x))
        {
            success = 1;
            break;
        }
    }

This is shadowcash's pushed to their repo 3 days ago:

Code:

        while(!EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GFp(ecGrp, ptRet, bnTmp, 0, bnCtx) && count < 100)
        {
            count += 1;

            if (count == 100)
                return errorN(1, "%s: Failed to find a valid point for public key.", __func__);

            BN_add(bnTmp, bnTmp, bnOne);
        }

This is their commit after they read our critique of their method:
