Curves over y^2 = x^3 + a*x + x

Technically, a Montgomery curve has a coefficient for y^2 but for Curve25519 and Curve448 that coefficient is 1.

Curve25519 and Curve448 do not make use of the y coordinate, which makes it unsuitable for use with ECDSA / EdDSA. A few other differences between Curve25519 and Ed25519 are discussed at https://crypto.stackexchange.com/a/43058/4520
