**Title:** Making C++ shine: Implementing a secure, scalable, and optimized cryptographic library

"Hey guys, I'm working on a C++ project that requires a robust cryptographic library. After researching various options, I realized that there isn't a comprehensive library that meets all my requirements - high performance, security, scalability, and code readability. Who else is interested in creating a state-of-the-art C++ crypto library from scratch?"

"Honestly, I think a big part of making C++ shine for crypto is embracing modern standards like C++20 and the latest crypto libraries like Botan or OpenSSL. Both of those have already implemented high-quality and optimized crypto functions that would be a huge step up from rolling your own. Has anyone explored using those in a project?"

"Dude, I've been following this thread and I think we can draw some inspiration from the cryptography work being done on the Monero project. Their Ring CT implementation is super neat and might be something we can adapt for our library. Worth checking out!"

"Sounds like a massive undertaking. Have you guys looked into using existing libraries like OpenSSL or Crypto++, or do you want to roll your own? Either way, I'm curious to see how you plan to optimize it for modern CPU architectures"

"Love the idea of a C++ crypto library, but let's not forget about async programming. With the rise of parallel processing, async crypto ops could give a decent boost to performance. Has anyone looked into using libpqxx for async SQLite with crypto ops?"
