The license text travelled with the code but nothing said whose code it was, so a reader had to infer the origin from a directory name or a line of README left over from upstream. A NOTICE states it: the project, the terms it came under, and the copyright holder to reproduce.

go-ipa
go-ipa is a library of cryptographic primitives for Verkle Trees.
Table of Contents
Description
go-ipa implements the Verkle Tree cryptography spec with extra optimizations.
The includes:
- Implementation of the Bandersnatch curve, and Banderwagon prime-order group.
- Pedersen Commitment for vector commitments using precomputed tables.
- Inner Product Argument prover and verifier implementations for polynomials in evaluation form.
- Multiproof prover and verifier implementations.
Usage in Verkle Tree client libraries
It's extremely important that clients using this library for Verkle Tree implementations only use the following packages:
commonfor general utility functions.banderwagonfor the prime-order group.ipafor proof generation and verification.
Do not use the bandersnatch package directly nor use unsafe functions to get into banderwagon internals. Doing so can create a security vulnerability in your implementation.
Test & Benchmarks
To run the tests and benchmarks, run the following commands:
$ go test ./...
To run the benchmarks:
go test ./... -bench=. -run=none -benchmem
Security
If you find any security vulnerability, please don't open a GH issue and contact repo owners directly.
