# crypto
crypto is the cryptographic package adapted for Tendermint's uses
## Importing it
To get the interfaces,
`import "github.com/tendermint/tendermint/crypto"`
For any specific algorithm, use its specific module e.g.
`import "github.com/tendermint/tendermint/crypto/ed25519"`
## Binary encoding
For Binary encoding, please refer to the [Tendermint encoding specification](https://docs.tendermint.com/master/spec/blockchain/encoding.html).
## JSON Encoding
JSON encoding is done using tendermint's internal json encoder. For more information on JSON encoding, please refer to [Tendermint JSON encoding](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/ccc990498df70f5a3df06d22476c9bb83812cbe3/libs/json/doc.go)
