I wish there was a similar part 2 course. All the courses I’ve seen seem to end at roughly the same point.

I want to learn about elliptic curve cryptography and post quantum crypto systems.

In case it helps, I found this course useful as intro to elliptical curve crypto - https://youtube.com/@introductiontocryptography4223?si=O-5_a... lectures 16 and 17 in particular.

I would like to add the thought of looking at where these elliptic curves are deployed, things like embedded devices and implementations bitcoin-core libraries for say secp256k1 [0].
