Binius STARKs Analysis and Its Optimization
Distinguished from elliptic curve-based SNARKs, STARKs can be viewed as hash-based SNARKs. One of the main challenges contributing to the current inefficiency of STARKs is that most values in actual programs are relatively small, such as indices in for loops, boolean values, and counters.
