Description

go-ipa implements the Verkle Tree cryptography spec with extra optimizations.

The includes:

• Implementation of the Bandersnatch curve, and Banderwagon prime-order group.
• Pedersen Commitment for vector commitments using precomputed tables.
• Inner Product Argument prover and verifier implementations for polynomials in evaluation form.
• Multiproof prover and verifier implementations.

Usage in Verkle Tree client libraries

It's extremely important that clients using this library for Verkle Tree implementations only use the following packages:

• common for general utility functions.
• banderwagon for the prime-order group.
• ipa for proof generation and verification.

Do not use the bandersnatch package directly nor use unsafe functions to get into banderwagon internals. Doing so can create a security vulnerability in your implementation.

Test & Benchmarks

To run the tests and benchmarks, run the following commands:

$ go test ./...

To run the benchmarks:

go test ./... -bench=. -run=none -benchmem

Security

If you find any security vulnerability, please don't open a GH issue and contact repo owners directly.
