<PRE>If any curve is acceptable, I would encourage Jubjub, which we'll be
using for the next version of Zcash. In which case you will be able to
leverage our Sapling crypto code once it is more mature over the next
month or so. <A HREF="https://github.com/zcash-hackworks/sapling-crypto">https://github.com/zcash-hackworks/sapling-crypto</A>
