atoulme opened a new issue #61: Blake2b F compression
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-tuweni/issues/61
 
 
   [EIP-152](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-152.md) 
introduced a new Blake2b precompile contract for Ethereum.
   
   This blake2b compression is implemented by Sodium, but Ethereum chose to use 
a different sigma.
   
   **Motivation**
   Current implementations of blake2b are client-specific - there exists one 
for each client, so far. They also are implemented in Java where ideally they 
should be implemented in low-level C, and introduced via bindings.
   
   Finally, this could be easily done by adopting and extending the libsodium 
primitives.
   
   **Scope of work**
   * Identify how to best implement a fast blake2b function, probably by 
reusing libsodium approaches.
   * Bundle a C low-level primitive for this precompile with a simple Java 
wrapper - JNR, most likely.
