12:16:43 saw this, if people are interested (or not). apologies if shared before: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/10057988 12:19:00 interesting enough list of funding agencies (but i think this is essentially the research model/type in China - as opposed to anything more specific) 14:10:07 “It allows multiple tracing authorities to collaboratively trace users' identities, and a system manager to perform multi-grained (including block-level, transaction-level, accumulator-level and commitment-level) redaction on block contents.” Useful for a CBDC I guess? Kinda goes in the opposite direction of open source cryptos. 14:18:30 This is the 3rd or 4th paper on how to redesign Monero to make it traceable by a central authority. All of the papers are by researchers at Chinese universities IIRC. 14:31:06 This paper comes to mind “Traceable monero: Anonymous cryptocurrency with enhanced accountability.” 14:31:06 https://moneroresearch.info/index.php?action=resource_RESOURCEVIEW_CORE&id=96&browserTabID= 14:32:32 “In this paper, we fill this gap by introducing a new cryptocurrency named Traceable Monero to balance the user anonymity and accountability. Our framework relies on a tracing authority, but is optimistic, in that it is only involved when investigations in certain transactions are required.” 14:35:25 And "Accountable Monero system with privacy protection." https://moneroresearch.info/index.php?action=resource_RESOURCEVIEW_CORE&id=94 14:35:31 And "An SM2-based traceable ring signature scheme for smart grid privacy protection." https://moneroresearch.info/index.php?action=resource_RESOURCEVIEW_CORE&id=124
