Generating key pairs ​

Generating authentication key pair ​

To generate an authentication key pair, perform the following steps:

1. Create a Blake2b-256 hash from a user email and password.
2. Use symmetric encryption to generate a random seed based on the generated hash and user password. We recommend using AES-256 with GCM or CCM secure mode.
3. Generate an authentication key pair from the generated seed.

Generating Iroha 2 key pair ​

To generate an Iroha 2 key pair, perform the following steps:

1. Request a salt value, which is a random piece of bytes only known to the network owners.
2. Create a Blake2b-256 hash from a user email and password.
3. Generate a blockchain seed from the generated hash and salt.
4. Generate an Iroha 2 key pair from the blockchain seed.
