BLS Signature for Busy People

bls12-381 is pairing-friendly Barreto-Lynn-Scott elliptic curve construction allowing to:

• Construct zk-SNARKs at the ~120-bit security, as per Barbulescu-Duquesne 2017
• Efficiently verify N aggregate signatures with 1 pairing and N ec additions: the Boneh-Lynn-Shacham signature scheme is orders of magnitude more efficient than Schnorr

BLS can mean 2 different things:

How To TCP NAT Traversal using Node.js and a STUN Server

With the scarecity of IPv4 addresses, and IPv6 still not available at large, NAT traversal is becoming a necessity. Especially with the generalisation of Carrier-grade NATs that you can find on mobile connections. Even with IPv6 you may suffer NAT66. Imagine your mobile device that gets only a single Ipv6 address, and you want to share it on your computer.

The solution might be in a decentralized protocol for address attribution such
