The work in this repo is the result of a Zcash foundation grant to develop open-source FPGA code that can be used to accelerate various aspects of the network.
**An Architecture document is [here](zcash_fpga_design_doc_v1.4.2.pdf)**.
We also gave a presentation at the Taipei Ethereum Meetup [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNClWrMbhlg).
[Here](Blockchain_Acceleration_Using_FPGAs_Elliptic_curves_zkSNARKs_and_VDFs_presentation.pdf) is a copy of the presentation slides.
While mainly developed for Equihash verification and elliptic curve operations on the secp256k1 and bls12-381 curves, the code (ip_cores) used in this repo can also be applied to other curves by
changing parameters / minimum modification to equations.
