You might be able to crib the EC multiply from this go implementation here: https://github.com/chigley/bip38/blob/master/decrypt.go

Do you mean compressing/decompressing public keys?

I implemented a point compression and decompression using mod square roots here: https://github.com/sour-is/koblitz/blob/master/kelliptic/kelliptic.go

It is ready to implement the type of bip38 that requires these methods, but not the actual use in the tool.

yes. compressing of the public keys.

But the more important needed feature is supporting the EC multiply bip38 keys. i have to deal with those more than the non-EC multiplied ones.
