`The Encrypt library requires the Mcrypt extension.`

To install Mcrypt library i used bellow code.

sudo apt-get install mcrypt php7.0-mcrypt

And then restarted the instance.

use Sodium or OpenSSL? http://php.net/manual/en/intro.mcrypt.php – Friderich Weber May 11 '18 at 13:50
Also, are you getting errors from the apt-get install? – Friderich Weber May 11 '18 at 13:52
You might also need to check [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34083470/php7-laravel-mcrypt-issue#answer-35421763) answer in the discussion thread, where PHP7 was missing mcrypt module. see if that helps you – Digil May 11 '18 at 23:50
