Releasing Constantine v0.1.0, the fastest backend for Ethereum cryptography.
BLS signatures, EVM crypto-precompiles, KZG polynomial commitments for blobs (EIP-4844). All accelerated, with multithreading support. And the fastest MSM for elliptic curves.

I accelerate Rust code with Nim following ZAL ;), the Zk Accel Layer: https://github.com/mratsim/constantine/pull/308

Compared to Rust frameworks I'm 1.8x to 4.5x faster (Arkworks, Bellman, Halo2, see https://github.com/mratsim/constantine/pull/226 )

This looks awesome! How does Nim stack up versus something like Rust performance wise? Do you think it would be a good candidate for high performance proof systems?

This is awesome, thanks so much for sharing! 2500 $DEGEN
