| Implementation of Binary Trees as specified in EIP-7864 |
|---|
Binary Trees are a novel cryptographic data structure proposed for use in Ethereum to optimize state storage and proof verification. Unlike Merkle Patricia Tries, Binary Trees use a strict binary branching structure, allowing smaller proof sizes. By reducing storage overhead and improving proof efficiency, Binary Trees aim to enhance Ethereum’s scalability while maintaining robust security guarantees.
Note: This library is in an experimental stage and should not be used in production!
To obtain the latest version, simply install the project using npm:
npm install @ethereumjs/binarytreeThe EthereumJS GitHub organization and its repositories are managed by members of the former Ethereum Foundation JavaScript team and the broader Ethereum community. If you want to join for work or carry out improvements on the libraries see the developer docs for an overview of current standards and tools and review our code of conduct.
