The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

cryptographic versus non-cryptographic: Complex low-level BLS12-381 cryptography is encapsulated away in libraries. Péter can for example interact with the BLST API when working on Verkle trees.

Sha-256 input data type
Here is one I use in production (the same as OpenSSL but just SSE3, audited by NCC): - https://github.com/supranational/blst/blob/master/src/sha256.h - https://github.com/supranational/blst/blob/5435c307e5b3540a6600b816a6d01bdb13a81869/src/no_asm.h#L1089 - https://github.com/supranational/blst/blob/master/src/asm/sha256-x86_64.pl

After The Merge, getting more scale into the system is probably the most pressing issue so much of our resources have been focused on 4844 and extensions of 4844 to "full sharding". Extensions of 4844 require a better `is_data_available()` function that instead of downloading everything performs Data Availability Sampling which is a hard problem to do in a decentralized/distributed yet reliable way. We just put out an [RFP](https://github.com/ethereum/requests-for-proposals/blob/master/open-rfps/das.md) to get more teams in this and are excited by the number of submissions. Reach out if this is the first time you've seen it and are interested in performing some work/research in this domain!
