Welcome to the plonky2-ed25519 Repository!

plonky2-ed25519 is a specialized implementation within the Plonky2 family, tailored specifically for the ed25519 cryptographic signature scheme. This repository builds upon the core principles of plonky2-gpu, leveraging GPU acceleration through the CUDA framework to enhance the efficiency of cryptographic operations.

Instructions:

  1. Prerequisites:

    • Ensure you have a CPU with a minimum of 8 cores.
    • Allocate at least 16GB of RAM.
    • Utilize an NVIDIA GPU with a minimum of 12GB GPU RAM. (here we used the 2080 Ti)
    • CUDA version: 12+

  2. Building and Running:

    • Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/sideprotocol/plonky2-ed25519.git
    • Navigate to the project directory: cd plonky2-ed25519
    • Build the project: ./test.sh

Test Results: Our tests demonstrate a remarkable reduction in proving time for ed25519 signatures — from 45 seconds to 5 seconds with plonky2-ed25519. This optimized performance showcases the power of GPU parallelization in cryptographic operations.

DISCLAIMER: This implementation is currently in its early stages and is not deemed production-ready. Use for experimentation and exploration purposes only.
