Architectural Vulnerabilities in Cryptosystems: A Systematic Cryptanalysis of Elliptic Curve Code (ECC) Implementations in Bitcoin Ecosystem Libraries – from Weak Nonces and Library Substitution to Private Key Leaks

Bitcoin's security fundamentally rests not on the abstract mathematical impenetrability of elliptic curves, but on the quality of software implementations of cryptographic primitives—libraries that implement operations on the secp256k1 curve. It is…
