OID description

This is a leaf OID (without child OIDs). OID: {iso(1) identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1) private(4) enterprise(1) 3029 algorithm(1) ecc(5) 1} (ASN.1 notation) 1.3.6.1.4.1.3029.1.5.1 (dot notation) /ISO/Identified-Organization/6/1/4/1/3029/1/5/1 (OID-IRI notation)

Description: Curve25519-OpenPGP algorithm

Information: According to Peter Gutmann, "Back in 2012 the folks working on the Crypto++ library needed an OID for Ed25519 (not Curve25519) in order to use it before it is standardized. I took a random value in some space I knew it would be safe from being reassigned. Around 2016, standard OIDs for that entire algorithm family were created and eventually published as IETF RFC 8410 (see OID {iso(1) identified-organization(3) thawte(101) id-X25519(110)}), which Crypto++ adopted in 2016 in version 5.6.4 (it is not clear if they ever used the made-up value in an official release as none of the versions archived have it)." According to Add OIDs for OpenPGP Curve25519, this OID is not used outside of OpenPGP.
