+## Abstract API
+
+Abstract API allows to define custom curves. All arithmetics is done with JS bigints over finite fields,
+which is defined from `modular` sub-module. For scalar multiplication, we use [precomputed tables with w-ary non-adjacent form (wNAF)](https://paulmillr.com/posts/noble-secp256k1-fast-ecc/).
+Precomputes are enabled for weierstrass and edwards BASE points of a curve. You could precompute any
+other point (e.g. for ECDH) using `utils.precompute()` method: check out examples.
+
+There are following zero-dependency algorithms:

 ```ts
-import { bls } from '@noble/curves/abstract/bls';
-import { twistedEdwards } from '@noble/curves/abstract/edwards';
-import { montgomery } from '@noble/curves/abstract/montgomery';
 import { weierstrass } from '@noble/curves/abstract/weierstrass';

-import * as utils from '@noble/curves/abstract/utils';
 ```
 
-They allow to define a new curve in a few lines of code:
+Short Weierstrass curve's formula is `y² = x³ + ax + b`. `weierstrass` expects arguments `a`, `b`, field `Fp`, curve order `n`, cofactor `h`
+and coordinates `Gx`, `Gy` of generator point.
+
+**`k` generation** is done deterministically, following [RFC6979](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6979).
+For this you will need `hmac` & `hash`, which in our implementations is provided by noble-hashes.
+If you're using different hashing library, make sure to wrap it in the following interface:
 
 ```ts
-import { Field } from '@noble/curves/abstract/modular';
-import { weierstrass } from '@noble/curves/abstract/weierstrass';
-import { hmac } from '@noble/hashes/hmac';
-import { sha256 } from '@noble/hashes/sha256';
-import { concatBytes, randomBytes } from '@noble/hashes/utils';
+type CHash = {
+  (message: Uint8Array): Uint8Array;
+  blockLen: number;
+  outputLen: number;
+  create(): any;
+};
+```
+
+**Weierstrass points:**
+
+1. Exported as `ProjectivePoint`
+2. Represented in projective (homogeneous) coordinates: (x, y, z) ∋ (x=x/z, y=y/z)
+3. Use complete exception-free formulas for addition and doubling
+4. Can be decoded/encoded from/to Uint8Array / hex strings using `ProjectivePoint.fromHex` and `ProjectivePoint#toRawBytes()`
+5. Have `assertValidity()` which checks for being on-curve
+6. Have `toAffine()` and `x` / `y` getters which convert to 2d xy affine coordinates

-  - `Point` conforming to `Group` interface with add/multiply/double/negate/add/equals methods
-  - `CURVE` object with curve variables like `Gx`, `Gy`, `Fp` (field), `n` (order)

-    blockLen: number;
-    outputLen: number;

-- w-ary non-adjacent form (wNAF) method with constant-time adjustments is used for point multiplication.
-  It is possible to enable precomputes for edwards & weierstrass curves.
-  Precomputes are calculated once (takes ~20-40ms), after that most `G` base point multiplications:
-  for example, `getPublicKey()`, `sign()` and similar methods - would be much faster.
-  Use `curve.utils.precompute()` to adjust precomputation window size

-  - `endo` endomorphism options for Koblitz curves

 ### abstract/edwards: Twisted Edwards curve
 
-Twisted Edwards curve's formula is: ax² + y² = 1 + dx²y².

+#### Creating private keys from hashes
 
-```typescript
+Suppose you have `sha256(something)` (e.g. from HMAC) and you want to make a private key from it.
+Even though p256 or secp256k1 may have 32-byte private keys,
+and sha256 output is also 32-byte, you can't just use it and reduce it modulo `CURVE.n`.
+
+Doing so will make the result key [biased](https://research.kudelskisecurity.com/2020/07/28/the-definitive-guide-to-modulo-bias-and-how-to-avoid-it/).
+
+To avoid the bias, we implement FIPS 186 B.4.1, which allows to take arbitrary
+byte array and produce valid scalars / private keys with bias being neglible.
+
+Use [hash-to-curve](#abstracthash-to-curve-hashing-strings-to-curve-points) if you need
+hashing to **public keys**; the function in the module instead operates on **private keys**.
+
+```ts
+import { p256 } from '@noble/curves/p256';
+import { sha256 } from '@noble/hashes/sha256';
+import { hkdf } from '@noble/hashes/hkdf';

 ## Upgrading
 
-If you're coming from single-curve noble packages, the following changes need to be kept in mind:
+If you're coming from single-feature noble packages, the following changes need to be kept in mind:
 
 - 2d affine (x, y) points have been removed to reduce complexity and improve speed
-- Removed `number` support as a type for private keys. `bigint` is still supported
-- `mod`, `invert` are no longer present in `utils`. Use `@noble/curves/abstract/modular.js` now.
