For Node, we use node --experimental-wasm-bigint. A functional solution needs to also be found for browsers.

The path is becoming clearer.

Firefox has BigInt support: https://www.asumu.xyz/blog/2020/07/06/shipping-webassembly-s-bigint-i64-conversion-in-firefox/

The tl;dr summary: starting in Firefox 78 (released June 30, 2020), you will be able to write WebAssembly functions that pass 64-bit integers to JavaScript (where they will turn into BigInts) and vice versa.
