These papers are using either gnark or gnark-crypto:

• https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/100.pdf
• https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/1443.pdf
• https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/1359.pdf
• https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?arnumber=9300214

• [x] add a bibtex citation reference to gnark so that we could better track the uses using Google Scholar alerts (Github <> Zenodo integration)
• [x] add a bibtex citation reference to gnark-crypto
• [ ] list references in README/gnark-doc
• [x] add API which allows to measure the cost of the circuits (e.g. # of scalar muls/adds/multiexps, pairings, ecc adds etc.)
• [ ] add an example how to swap the curves
• [ ] get feedback from the researchers using gnark

I did the Zenodo integration. Next releases of gnark and gnark-crypto will add the bibtex + zenodo DOI badge.
