Summary
I'm confused by the current support for ed25519 keys in the Cosmos SDK.
Problem Definition
Based on the line below from the docs, I think I should be able to generate an ed25519
key.
The keyring also supports ed25519 keys, which may be created by passing the --algo ed25519 flag.
But I can't
$ ./build/celestia-appd keys add test --algo ed25519
Error: provided algorithm "ed25519" is not supported
I also found #8543 which makes me think ed25519 is defined but not actually usable. https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/main/crypto/keys/ed25519/doc.go doesn't state it's level of support.
Proposal
Document the current state of ed25519 keys in Cosmos SDK. How can apps use them?
