Traditional STARKs require a cyclic group of a smooth order in the field. This allows efficient interpolation of points using the FFT algorithm, and writing constraints that involve neighboring rows. The Elliptic Curve FFT (ECFFT, Part I and II) introduced a way to make efficient STARKs for any finite field, by using a cyclic group of an elliptic curve. We show a simpler construction in the lines of ECFFT over the circle curve $x^2 + y^2 = 1$. When $p + 1$ is divisible by a large power of $2$...| IACR Cryptology ePrint Archive
Stark to contest WSX The Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) has confirmed the technical regulations that will allow Stark Future’s VARG MX 1.2 to compete directly against combustion motorcycles in the 2025 FIM World Supercross Championship (WSX). To compete in the FIM World Supercross Championship (SX1 and SX2), electric motorcycles must run under the FIM’s Equivalence […] The post Stark confirm factory backed entry in WSX as FIM opens up rules appeared first on MCNews.| MCNews
Motorcycle Industry News Stark Funding Spanish electric motorcycle manufacturer Stark Future has completed a new investment round aimed at fuelling growth and expanding its model range. Unlike the previous round, which was led by India’s Eicher Motors, parent company of Royal Enfield, this latest funding was largely supported by Stark’s existing shareholders, with the addition […] The post Stark’s latest round of equity funding quickly fulfilled appeared first on MCNews.| MCNews
