2. Fiamma @Fiamma_Chain claims to have implemented a more optimized method for splitting BitVM scripts, which has already been applied to split Groth16 and FFlonk. This method abandons automatic splitting in favor of manually splitting each sub-function, reportedly achieving better results. Fiamma has showcased the final split results, but the related code has not yet been open-sourced. https://x.com/Fiamma_Chain/status/1822981481725387014
