BIP38 is a standard process to encrypt Groestlcoin and crypto currency private keys that is impervious to brute force attacks thus protecting the user.
A JavaScript component that adheres to the BIP38 standard to secure your crypto currency private keys. Fully compliant with Node.js and the browser (via Browserify).
BIP38GRS is a standard process to encrypt Groestlcoin private keys that is impervious to brute force attacks thus protecting the user.
npm install --save bip38grs
Async methods are available, but using them will be slower, but free up the event loop in intervals you choose.
For benchmark results, please see the section in the README of the scryptsy library. Increasing the interval will decrease the performance hit, but increase the span between event loop free ups (UI drawing etc.) promiseInterval is the last optional parameter after scryptParams. There is no recommendation currently, as the performance trade off is app specific.
