Cryptocash, cryptocurrencies, and cryptocontracts
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the central challenges for mathematical cryptography is to create a payment system that provides the advantages of cash in a digital world. In this expository article we describe two very different solutions to this problem. The first is an elliptic-curve-based version of a construction of S. Brands, and the second is Bitcoin. We also discuss a generalization of Bitcoin that supports peer-to-peer contracts. AMS subject classifications. 94A60, 68P25, 14G50, 94-02.

Anonymous Post-Quantum Cryptocash
In this paper, we construct an anonymous and decentralized cryptocash system which is secure in the quantum computation model. In order to achieve that, a linkable ring signature based on the ideal lattice is proposed. The size of a signature in our scheme is O(logN), where N is the cardinality of the ring. The framework of our cryptocash system follows that of CryptoNote with some modification...

متن کاملPossible State Approaches to Cryptocurrencies
Cryptocurrencies are a type of digital currencies that are relying on cryptographic proofs for confirmation of transactions. Cryptocurrencies usually achieve a unique combination of three features: ensuring limited anonymity, independence from central authority and double spending attack protection. No other group of currencies, including fiat currencies, has this combination of features. We wi...
متن کاملUsing Machine Learning ARIMA to Predict the Price of Cryptocurrencies
The increasing volatility in pricing and growing potential for profit in digital currency have made predicting the price of cryptocurrency a very attractive research topic. Several studies have already been conducted using various machine-learning models to predict crypto currency prices. This study presented in this paper applied a classic Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average(ARIMA) model ...
متن کاملBuzz Factor or Innovation Potential: What Explains Cryptocurrencies’ Returns?
Cryptocurrencies have become increasingly popular since the introduction of bitcoin in 2009. In this paper, we identify factors associated with variations in cryptocurrencies' market values. In the past, researchers argued that the "buzz" surrounding cryptocurrencies in online media explained their price variations. But this observation obfuscates the notion that cryptocurrencies, unlike fiat c...
