For RSA, most non-experts have an intuitive feel for why the cryptosystem is secure: we all know that factoring numbers is hard. Do you think it's possible to give a concise explanation for why ECC is secure aside from "hand wavey black box" + understandable algebra = security?
Total aside: when I was writing this, you answered a lot of my questions in #bitcoin. Thanks for helping me out :)
