NameDescription
POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED the point is encoded as z||x, where the octet z specifies which solution of the quadratic equation y is
POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED the point is encoded as z||x||y, where z is the octet 0x04
POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID the point is encoded as z||x||y, where the octet z specifies which solution of the quadratic equation y is
