Struct VerifyingKey 

pub struct VerifyingKey(/* private fields */);

A (decompressed) point on the Edwards25519 curve (but not on its twist) that may be used to verify signatures.

It is not as compact as a PublicKey in memory and requires more costly verification/initialization, but directly corresponds to one.
