4/20 is an apt day for discussing DIY cryptography because ... when you roll your own, you get stoned. JP is right here though; well designed cryptography-in-a-box can protect you from some mistakes, but it's not sufficient. You still have to look at the whole application.https://twitter.com/veorq/status/1252107561270157313 …

RYOC initially meant "don't create a new cipher", but ultimately everyone rolls their own crypto to some degree, cos each application combines crypto libs/protocols in a unique way to achieve its security goals. But throwing 25519 curves at a problem doesnt magically solve it.
