Re: ⋆⋆⋆ [SDC] ShadowCash | ShadowSend v2 (ZK Anon) & White Paper NOW AVAILABLE! ⋆⋆⋆
Cryptonote uses a different curve, different libraries, and a whole different underlying core.
We used ring signatures to spend Shadow, which is created by sending SDC as an anonymous output.
Our scheme is quite a bit different, in that we borrow concepts from zerocoin, with the minting and spending, and use ring signatures to make the inputs untraceable from the outputs.. We're also using PoS instead of PoW.
Its a completely unique scheme and implementation
Not to mention, Shadow's anonymity is much more lightweight and flexible than XMR / cryptonote solutions. And SDC is not restricted to any type of signatures... SDC can swap it out with any better zero knowledge systems should they ever come along, and SDC will always be able to improve on it.
