smt-circom
This crate provides a Sparse Merkle Tree implementation in Rust using Poseidon hash, compatible with circom zero-knowledge proofs.
It can be used with an in-memory node store, a persistent RocksDB store, or a custom store.
The implementation is inspired by @iden3/js-merkletree.
Example usage
use smt_circom::{store::MemStore, SparseMerkleTree};
let mut tree = SparseMerkleTree::<64, _>::new(MemStore::new())?;
assert_eq!(tree.root()?, [0; 32]);
let (idx, new_value) = ([1; 32], [2; 32]);
let proof = tree.get_proof(idx);
assert!(!proof.membership);
tree.add_or_update(idx, new_value)?;
Benchmark results
Here's the result of running a benchmark on an AMD Ryzen 5 5600H, comparing smt-circom against @iden3/js-merkletree (Node.js), both using trees with depth 64 and an in-memory store. It first adds 10 random leafs, then gets inclusion proofs for these 10 leafs (both benchmarks use the same seeded rng).
| Add 10 leafs | Get 10 proofs | |
|---|---|---|
| smt-circom | 1.74 ms | 0.00174 ms |
| js-merkletree | 13.5 ms | 1.05 ms |
