One of our very big development is the Sigma Protocol and for this project, we are very happy to have our cryptography Advisor Tim Ruffing on board, the perfect guy on board to advise us on this project because he has extensive interest in our Sigma Protocol and Zerocoin, we are really lucky to have him interested in this project...
Tim says that he will help us and also advise us on how to implement Sigma Protocol.
You might be asking, what is Sigma Protocol?
First of all, Sigma Protocol helps us bring down our proof sizes from 25kb to 1kb, it also totally removes the trusted setup.
That means that Zerocoin will no longer suffer the problems that Zerocash has anymore, and it seems like a very big thing, especially when you are dealing with trust.
I think the only sort of thing we might be concerned about is how it might affect our performance, but at one point, we will find a solution.
