It isn't just ring signatures, it is a combination of techniques involving a particular construction of ring signature, breaking amounts into equal denominations for mixing, and stealth addresses (including making outputs of a transaction unlinkable with each other) that comprise the CryptoNote application of the math to the practice of cryptocurrency (saberhagen white paper). The same methods with minor variation are used in Shadow. The most recent Shadow uses Adam Back's modified ring sigs (approaches 1/2 size with large mix factors), so it does deviate from CryptoNote there.
Sure Shadow's dual key stealth addys look like CN addys. LOL Be seeing you. |

One person said your name. Ffmad didn't attack the community, he attacked you for bitching day in and day out. You said you were out. How about you honor your own word. Isn't it funny how one overlooks the shortcomings of those he loves? And yet one sees more clearly without that fog. We all wear many masks Tim and this is the last of mine. CH never posted again and all being well after this neither shall I. ffmad's were not aimed specifically at CH. Anyway the notion anybody besides ryno and TV could prepare these docs, or more specifically CH, is preposterous, I had never examined the early days of SDC... until now. The links only serve to document the first 11 days and the dramatic change from 20 to 6 million supply, ostensibly resulting from the presence of scrypt ASIC's, which existed at the time of launch. With 90% of coins mined in the first 11 days, combined with the failure of the official mining pool, it is hard to imagine how this can be described as a "fair launch" . The release of shadow chat to coincide with said 11 day PoS wallet release also suggests the code was ready beforehand and released expediently. Without peer review the best we got is Todd's cryptographer colleague saying the "math looks like Monero" (which really means Bytecoin I guess). Anyway people will form their own opinions. Bye. The math does not belong to Monero/Bytecoin/Cryptonote. The math belongs to traceable ring signatures. Prove it. I'm no expert but I've played with Bytecoin , Monero and Shadow. Shadowsend tx's look like Crytonote on the chain. They even suffer the same I/O irritations. The use of ring sigs for anon at all is a BCN innovation. That Todd's colleague said what he did makes perfect sense. Why does TV not object? Nuff market speak. I'm out. |

Complete Shadowteam is now in OKCash...?!
Lovin' how trolls think they can smell blood when CH gets vitriolic. The fact this community can support such diverse opinion only shows its strength and character. Me and WC are nothing, mere footnotes in the history of Shadow. |

Ok i dumped all...i hate it when it stinks to heaven!
lol says the cravecloaker. gtfo already troll. I'm staking and happy. The market is coming. I know they are capable of the development behind it. These devs always deliver. *edit* and seriously child you are going to make a shitstorm because of .4btc? I am not going to buy your silence. That is a disgusting offer. Staking and you are happy? That every staked coin is nothing worth in future?  Market is broken and devs will never release something special, only poor distract news. Sorry? Who the hell are you? |

Can anybody speak to this coin's anon? Is it original code or was the stealth addy component forked from a diff coin? Is there a whitepaper? Are stealth addy tx's shown in the blockchain? ANd finally ur blockexplorers r down, how many VTC in circulation today? thanks EDIT: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/vertcoin/answered the last part for myself… this coin has nearly a $4million marketcap? WHY? How active is Bushido? Does he post on BCT? cheers |
