The team of Monero developers is making plans to increase the efficiency of the blockchain and privacy features of the token. New reports show that the team is getting closer to including bulletproofs to the Monero protocol. Already, the Monero community has funded and completed three security audits for the bulletproof initiative. The last one to be completed was reported by Coin Crunch and retweeted by the official Monero handle. While the first security audit was completed by Kudelski, Quarks lab & Benedikt Bünz completed the second two. Bünz is a PhD student majored in applied cryptocurrency in Stanford.
What Is The Bulletproof Protocol?
The bulletproof protocol is a zero-knowledge solution that allows users to hide the amount for Monero transactions from the blockchain.
It gives an extra layer of privacy on the public blockchain. This feature doesn’t require a setup and it doesn’t overuse computational power. It hides only the amount for the transaction but the sender and receiver addresses remain visible. This technology is still new and it hasn’t been adopted by many cryptocurrency projects yet.
