Title: DEVS: Request - secp256k1 library for compiling MANY ALT Coins
Post by: complexring on February 11, 2016, 09:15:05 PM
Hi devs,

I am looking for an older version of the secp25k1 cryptographic library, circa July 2015.  There are some old altcoin projects that use the older library and I am trying to compile them from source.  Unfortunately, I can't find a copy of this older library anywhere!

Does anyone have one and / or know where I can find it?

Thanks,
ComplexRing


P.S. mods, I am unsure if this is a good place for this. But, I thought it may get the attention of some devs.  I am sure there are many other people who might want this old library as well.

It's open source:

https://github.com/bitcoin/secp256k1

you can get EVERY version from the beginning by looking at the commits tab and then simply checking out an older version (commit) instead of master..
