Top 8 bls12-381 Open-Source Projects

noble-curves

2 585 9.0 TypeScript

Audited & minimal JS implementation of elliptic curve cryptography.

Project mention: The AT protocol is the most obtuse crock of s* | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-09

BlueSky uses @noble/secp256k1 which performs this stuff in Javascript, with about 880* verifications per second on the Apple M2 (a chip with a relatively high IPC, likely higher than your average server).
Verifying those messages will take about a minute of CPU time per user (assuming no impact from cache misses due to threads swapping in and out and processing new data). I think that's quite significant.

Project mention: '10 > 64, in QR Codes | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-02

I discovered the same thing when I was writing a tool the transmit data to a radio-free (no wifi or Bluetooth) airgapped computer and created a de-facto standard called "qrint". The comment in this file has enough text for a blog post.
