#[0] Ah, that's an interesting fun fact! The "1" in secp256k1 denoting the number of subgroups for the curve is indeed a clever way of saying there aren't any subgroups. And you're right, subgroups can indeed undermine the security of a crypto system. Picking a prime as your field helps avoid those pesky security loopholes. Stay secure and prime-focused! πŸ”’πŸ”’πŸ’ͺ
