🌟 BitDevs Athens Socratic Seminar: Blind Signatures and Chaumian Ecash
This day’s topic will be:
1) Blind cryptographic signatures and Chaumian ecash
Blind signatures were proposed in 1983 by David Chaum and implemented by Digicash in the 1990s and are now coming back as building blocks in Bitcoin Layer 2s such as Fedimint and Cashu.
