## Description

go-ipa implements the [Verkle Tree cryptography spec](https://github.com/crate-crypto/verkle-trie-ref) 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:
```bash
$ go test ./...
```

To run the benchmarks:
```bash
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.
