❄️Winterfell based zkSTARKs for XFG collateral burn proofsπŸ”₯

A fortress of cryptographic strength, implementing STARK (Scalable Transparent Argument of Knowledge) proofs with the unyielding security of Winterfell's walls, memory safety as solid as the castle's foundation, and zero-cost abstractions that would make even the most cunning Lannister envious.

βš”οΈ The XFG Winterfell Arsenal

πŸ›‘οΈ Core Defenses

  • βš”οΈ Field Arithmetic: Type-safe field element operations with constant-time implementations that would make the Night's Watch proud
  • πŸ“œ Polynomial Operations: Efficient polynomial arithmetic and evaluation, more precise than even MΓ¦ster Luwin's calculations
  • 🏰 STARK Proof System: Complete STARK proof generation and verification- the cryptographic equivalent of Winterfell's defenses
  • 𐂷 Type System: Comprehensive type definitions for all cryptographic operations, as thorough as the Stark family tree

πŸ›‘οΈ Security Fortifications

  • Constant-time cryptographic operations that never reveal their secrets
  • Secure secret management with zeroization.
  • Type-level prevention of timing attacks, more reliable than the Wall's magic
  • Memory safety through Rust's type system as strong as Valyrian steel
  • Comprehensive error handling with Result types as true as the word of Ned Stark's son.

⚑ Performance Weapons Tools

  • Zero-cost abstractions for all operations as efficient as Arya's water dancing
  • Optimized field arithmetic implementations as fast as direwolves
  • Efficient polynomial evaluation algorithms as precise as one of The L3-eyed Raven's visions
  • Minimal runtime overhead for type safety as light as a crow's feather

βš”οΈ Wielding XFG-STARK's Power

Basic Field Operations

use xfg_stark::types::field::PrimeField64;

// Create field elements - Forging the weapons
let a = PrimeField64::new(5);
let b = PrimeField64::new(3);

// Perform arithmetic operations - The art of war
let sum = a + b;
let product = a * b;
let inverse = a.inverse().unwrap();

// Constant-time operations - The way of the North
let ct_sum = a.add_constant_time(&b);
let ct_product = a.mul_constant_time(&b);

Polynomial Operations

use xfg_stark::types::polynomial::FieldPolynomial;
use xfg_stark::types::field::PrimeField64;

// Create polynomials - Crafting the spells
let coeffs = vec![PrimeField64::new(1), PrimeField64::new(2), PrimeField64::new(1)];
let poly = FieldPolynomial::new(coeffs);

// Evaluate polynomial - Casting the magic
let result = poly.evaluate(PrimeField64::new(3));

// Polynomial arithmetic - The maester's calculations
let poly2 = FieldPolynomial::constant(PrimeField64::new(1));
let sum = poly.add(&poly2);
let product = poly.multiply(&poly2);

STARK Proof Components

use xfg_stark::types::stark::{StarkProof, ExecutionTrace, Air};
use xfg_stark::types::field::PrimeField64;

// Create execution trace - The witness of the North
let trace = ExecutionTrace {
    columns: vec![vec![PrimeField64::new(1), PrimeField64::new(2)]],
    length: 2,
    num_registers: 1,
};

// Create AIR constraints - The laws of the realm
let air = Air {
    constraints: vec![],
    transition: TransitionFunction {
        coefficients: vec![vec![PrimeField64::new(1)]],
        degree: 1,
    },
    boundary: BoundaryConditions { constraints: vec![] },
    security_parameter: 128,
};

// Create STARK proof - The seal of Winterfell
let proof = StarkProof {
    trace,
    air,
    commitments: vec![],
    fri_proof: FriProof {
        layers: vec![],
        final_polynomial: vec![PrimeField64::new(1)],
        queries: vec![],
    },
    metadata: ProofMetadata {
        version: 1,
        security_parameter: 128,
        field_modulus: "0x30644e72e131a029b85045b68181585d97816a916871ca8d3c208c16d87cfd47".to_string(),
        proof_size: 1024,
        timestamp: 1234567890,
    },
};
