bmng-dev 9b40838f25 Use pointMult instead of arithmetic.privtopub 
pointMult is faster than the pure python arithmetic.privtopub

Additionally in makeCryptor the call to a.privtopub could have just simply be changed to call the local privToPub but then privkey would have been dehexified twice (once in makeCryptor, then again in privToPub) and privToPub would have hexified its result only for makeCryptor to immediately dehexify it. This sort of unnecessary hexifying/dehexifying seems to occur throughout PyBitmessage.

PyBitmessage

Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication, which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.

Development

Bitmessage is a collaborative project. You are welcome to submit pull requests although if you plan to put a non-trivial amount of work into coding new features, it is recommended that you first solicit feedback on the DevTalk pseudo-mailing list: BM-2D9QKN4teYRvoq2fyzpiftPh9WP9qggtzh
