Since Bitcoin only allows a single sign for their points, we should only report the x-coordinates.

This is also needed for Ethereum and a DoS. If any validators turn malicious and oraclize an invalid key, the processor will error as it assumes all generated keys are valid (though here, it'd be generated by an invalid set).

It's a self-DoS without benefit. It's still a DoS.

Custom on-chain representation was solved in the processor-smash branch.
