I'm not saying that ppl should trust ed25519 -or any other encryption- but I am saying I wouldn't trust anything that NIST is advocating. Personally I have some reservations about ECC in general. I brought up Duel_EC__DRBG to illustrate how the NSA works. They paid RSA Security $10 million in a secret deal to use Dual_EC_DRBG as the default in the RSA BSAFE cryptography library, which resulted in RSA Security becoming the most important distributor of the insecure algorithm. NIST is not your friend.
