@jamesbeadle here is a breakdown I posted in response to another post.

Error: Failed to authenticate request ... due to: Invalid signature: Invalid public key: Malformed Placeholder public key: , error: Error in DER encoding: Invalid length of bit string: -74"

I had to figure out how to encode ECDSA keys a couple years ago for work and what I found is that it’s relatively easy if your key size stays the same. (when compared to something like encoding RSA keys). I modified IC-Py to write the encoded public to a file so I could deconstruct it. Here is what I got: 30 Sequence 56 Sequence Length (86b) 30 Sequence 10 Sequence Length (16b) 06 Object Identifier 07 OID Length (7b) 2a 86 48 ce 3d 02 01 (id-ecPublicKey) 06 Object Identifier 05 OID Len…

Happy to add more context later, but currently at work.
