It seems like Shen is going full steam ahead! Some updates regarding Ring Confidential Transactions for Monero:

edit 1/9/2016: Looks like its fully funded! Thanks to everyone who funded - I've started the work (https://github.com/ShenNoether/MiniNero/commit/9ede58897808bee784dab296654b99899a58c109), and I will be posting updates here for the next two weeks as I work on this, rather than updating both here and the stickied reddit post.

edit 1/13/2016: MG sigs + demo are done (git clone https://github.com/ShenNoether/MiniNero.git, cd brief, make, a.exe (or a.out depending on system)). Most of the helper functions are there, so the rest should go a little bit quicker. Also fixed a tiny bug in Monero's keccak function.

edit 1/14/2016: ASNL + demo are done. (https://github.com/ShenNoether/MiniNero/commit/88b2d93e137bd5a2e2a2700ac11136705bd463c5) I will probably do some additional checks on these and the MG sigs once I get everything finished, however they are working as expected now.

edit 1/15/2016: spent an all nighter getting a rough version of all the code finished - I will most likely clean it up, and then make it available early next week.

edit 1/21/2016: Just FYI the code is fully working (available at https://github.com/ShenNoether/MiniNero/tree/master/brief) right now I am just doing some additional checks / testing / looking carefully for bugs, I expect to have all of these checks done by end of the week.

Just a small update on the crypto c++ work since it's been two weeks since it was funded:

[1] There is a working version available here I posted earlier this week: https://github.com/ShenNoether/MiniNero/tree/master/brief is basically an exact translation of the python version referenced in the paper

[2] I'm a little bit unhappy with the readability and layout of that code, so for the past few days I've been refactoring and updating comments, as well as running some tests- I will aim to make this available in a fresh repository in the next few days.
