Quick update on the progress that has been made this week.
1. Transferring funds will have a stealth option
Couple of things that has been considered:
Wallet traceability has three constraints, transactions, amounts and addresses. The other constraint is user usage i.e user tags his/her identity to the address. SO, how do we hide or create anonymity? Mwahaha... Its on its way.. (pingpong has gone mad)
2. curveZMQ is partially in.. We just can't use or see it while testing using the Swagger API explorer.
Once pingpong has got the rest end-point to work with ring and zero proof.. He will need to add more cryptography algos which will obfuscate the transaction block. Plus adding something that he thinks is going to blow your mind. So, after some deliberation... stealth payments are in now modifying the transactions lookup and then verify that its all working.
Stealth payments must protect both sender and recipient, which the norm only protects the recipient. Another implementation on transaction values will feature range proofs!!! Interested in range proof/ Take a look here -

Expect something soon...To be continued...
