SSTORE2 uses the Ethereum contract storage CREATE2 and CREATE3 to store storage variables. At a size of more than 32 bytes, this allows an improved way of storing variables. There are two interesting libraries implementing this concept:

• 0xsequence/sstore2
• Rari-Capital/solmate

Solidity

• List of Solidity libraries in the wild
• ethereum/eth2.0-specs

Data Structures

• Merkling in Ethereum
• Erigon DB Walkthrough
• jzaki/bls-wallet

Membership-storage data structures

• OZ's BitMaps implementation

Membership-proof data structures

• FAN, Bin, et al. Cuckoo filter: Practically better than bloom. In: Proceedings of the 10th ACM International on Conference on emerging Networking Experiments and Technologies. 2014. S. 75-88.
  • Go implementation that contains an explicit implementation of a fingerprint function
  • cuckoo filter implementation
• Golomb-coded map implementation
• Xor filter implementation
