BLS Test Generator

Explanation of BLS12-381 type hierarchy The base unit is bytes48 of which only 381 bits are used

FQ: uint381 modulo field modulus
FQ2: (FQ, FQ)
G2: (FQ2, FQ2, FQ2)

Comments

Compared to Zcash, Ethereum specs always requires the compressed form (c_flag / most significant bit always set). Also note that pubkeys and privkeys are reversed.
