But since I use secp256k1 curve only for testing and research I do no care much for any of  possible vulnerabilities and attacks.

The safest (not necessary the fastest) secp256k1 is the one used in Bitcoin Core. But I don't use it because I keep getting wrong answers when I do arithmetic. Maybe the privkey bytes are not being filled correctly or something.

Perhaps you should open an issue or discussion topic (https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/issues or https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/discussions/categories/q-a) on the library, because that's definitely not supposed to happen.
