The compressed representation of EC public keys provides following benefits:

the exported key is shorter, takes less space in database and during transport
the key format will be unified with PowerAuth mobile SDK
some of the invalid curve attacks are impossible with compressed key due to absence of the y coordinate

romanstrobl added the enhancement label
