Abstract
We present an e-cash scheme which provides a trade-off between anonymity and efficiency, by amortizing the cost of zero-knowledge and signature computation in the cash generation phase.
Our work solves an open problem of Okamoto in divisible e-cash. Namely, we achieve results similar to those of Okamoto, but (1) based on traditional complexity assumptions (rather than ad hoc ones), and (2) within a much crisper definitional framework that highlights the anonymity properties, and (3) in a simple fashion.
