Official encryption library powered by zetrix-encryption-nodejs.
Generate New Keypair(zetrix_crypto_generate_keypair)
Generate new key pair with address.
Purpose: Create cryptographically secure keypair for new accounts.
Algorithm: Ed25519 (Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm)
Returns:
{
"privateKey": "priv...",
"publicKey": "b001...",
"address": "ZTX..."
}
Key Length: 256-bit private key, 256-bit public key
Security: Industry-standard algorithm used by cryptocurrencies worldwide
Performance: Generates keypair in <10ms
Offline: Completely offline operation, no network required
Public Key(zetrix_crypto_get_public_key)
Derive public key from private key.
Purpose: Calculate corresponding public key from private key.
Algorithm: Scalar multiplication on Ed25519 curve
Mathematics: P = s*G where P is public key, s is private key, G is generator
Deterministic: Same private key always produces same public key
Performance: <5ms computation time
Account Address(zetrix_crypto_get_address)
Get Zetrix address from public key.
Purpose: Derive Zetrix address from public key.
Process:
Format: Starts with "ZTX", 35 characters total
Checksum: Built-in error detection prevents typos
One-way: Cannot reverse address to get public key
Validate key or address format.
Purpose: Check if key/address string is correctly formatted.
Validates:
Checks Performed:
Private key: "priv" prefix, 64 hex chars, valid curve point
Public key: "b001" prefix, valid encoding
Address: "ZTX" prefix, 35 chars, valid Base58, checksum
Performance: <1ms validation time
Generate Digital Signature(zetrix_crypto_sign)
Sign a message with private key.
Purpose: Create cryptographic signature proving message authenticity.
Algorithm: Ed25519 signature scheme (EdDSA)
Output: 64-byte signature (128 hex characters)
Security: Signature proves private key holder approved the message
Properties:
Performance: ~0.5ms per signature
Verify Digital Signature(zetrix_crypto_verify)
Verify signature against message.
Purpose: Confirm signature was created by claimed private key.
Input:
Output: Boolean (valid/invalid)
Security: Mathematically impossible to forge valid signature without private key
Performance: ~1ms per verification (slightly slower than signing)
Encrypt Private Key(zetrix_crypto_encrypt_key)
Encrypt private key with password.
Purpose: Secure private key storage using password-based encryption.
Algorithm: AES-256-CBC (Advanced Encryption Standard)
Key Derivation: PBKDF2 with 10,000+ iterations and random salt
Output: Encrypted key + salt + IV in single string
Password Requirements:
Mixed case (upper and lower)
Include numbers and symbols
Performance: ~100-200ms (intentionally slow for security)
Decrypt Private Key(zetrix_crypto_decrypt_key)
Decrypt encrypted private key with password.
Purpose: Recover private key from encrypted storage.
Process:
Validation: Automatically verifies decryption succeeded
Errors: Returns error if password incorrect or data corrupted
Performance: ~100-200ms (same as encryption)
