- Working quantum computer
- Address spend pubkey of target, main or subaddress
- Not multisig
- The private spend key is the seed src
- The private view key is a hash of solely the private spend key src
- Subaddresses are generated by adding the public spend key to a base point multiplied by a scalar hash of the private view key and a small "index" space src
This is not the exact math, but here is a simplified deriviation scheme which preserves all the relationships that we care about:
SOME CATS is a scheme to send 16-byte transaction memos in 2-out transactions using Carrot. SOME CATS memos are:
- Encrypted - Memos are encrypted to the receiver, optionally visible to the sender as well
- Indistinguishable - Transactions containing a SOME CATS memo are indistinguishable from normal Carrot transactions
- Available on-chain - The memo will always be available on-chain as long as its associated transaction is
- Receiver agnostic - The receiver doesn't need to support SOME CATS to spend funds sent in a SOME CATS transaction, so long as they support the Carrot addressing protocol
CRIBPOET lets you prove you knew about information before some point in time by posting a Carrot transaction from your wallet to the Monero blockchain.
- Carrot - Uses the Carrot addressing protocol, so any wallet with the new Carrot key hierarchy will have the ability to support this scheme by default
- Indistinguishable - Uses steganography to look like a regular old 2-out transaction
- Blinded - The commitment to the information contains a blinding factor that makes it impossible to guess the message from the commitment
- Recoverable - The blinding factor is recoverable through normal Carrot balance recovery, which means you don't have to keep track of any ephemeral information.
