Now that I read separate 'QUIC Crypto' page. It sounds bit of a deja vu.
QUIC also uses Curve25519 pubkey and Salsa20 cipher, which is hard to attribute as chance, considering both are DJB's work, both are used by his NaCl library and by extension by MinimaLT. Neither is particularly common algorithm.
Taking into consideration these are the best algorithms in their class currently, it would be more surprising to me if they weren't used. -- Darius Jahandarie
