Arkworks 0.6.0 is out 🎉
The headline isn't BabyBear, KoalaBear, Mersenne31, Goldilocks.
It's `SmallFp` — a macro for any prime up to 64 bits that picks the optimal layout + arithmetic at compile time.
Drop-in. Non-breaking. Up to 30% speedup.

Ale and Eylon are super good at writing. I open this book almost everyday for my research. Cannot recommend more.
My advisor Alessandro Chiesa released a book, together with Eylon Yogev!
It covers *all* there is to know to build SNARGs and STARKs in the (pure) random oracle model, with explicit bounds and parameter-setting guidance.
Available (with source code!) at snargsbook.org 🧵

Say hello to STIR 🥣!
STIR is an IOPP for RS which, compared to FRI, has shorter arguments (~2x) and a faster verifier (~1.2x) that performs fewer hashes (~2x).
Joint work with Gal Arnon, Alessandro Chiesa and Eylon Yogev.
