Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | Ring Confidential Transactions |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | The research note Monero used to hide amounts, not just the signer. It extends ring signatures so a spender can prove a balance inside a ring without publishing the values. |
| Who may write | Shen Noether |
| What is settled | Commitments hide values. The signature proves the commitments in a ring are well formed. |
| Load-bearing assumption | This is not a Monero 'project white paper' in the ICO sense. It is the amount-privacy note the project adopted. |
| What this library says afterwards | Later Monero changes, including proof systems after this note, are not described here. |
