@ethereumjs/binarytree

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.

This package is currently in early alpha and is a work in progress. It is not intended for use in production environments, but rather for research and development purposes. Any help in improving the package is very much welcome.
