verkle-crypto

A pure Zig implementation of Verkle Tree cryptography.

Features

This library is feature complete:

• Relevant finite field arithmetic.
• Bandersnatch and Banderwagon group implementations.
• Pedersen Hashing for trie-key caculations.
• Proof creation and verification.

Some notes about the implementation:

• Both trie-key calculation and proof verification are very efficient.
• This library has no external dependencies.
• No assembly is used, so it can be compiled to all supported targets.
• This library is single-threaded. It's planned to add multi-threading support in the future.
• Comptetitive with (or faster, single threaded) than go-ipa or rust-verkle.

This library isn't audited nor battle-tested, so it isn't recommended to be used in production.
