Abstract

Recently,there have been some vague fears about the CryptoNote source code and protocol floating around the internet based on the fact that it is a more complicated protocol than,for instance,Bitcoin. The purpose of this note is to try and clear up some misconceptions,and hopefully remove some of the mystery surrounding Monero Ring Signatures. I will start by comparing the mathematics involved in CryptoNote ring signatures (as described in [CN]) to the mathematics in [FS],on which CryptoNote is based. After this,I will compare the mathematics of the ring signature to what is actually in the CryptoNote codebase.
