Module tari_crypto::commitment
source · Expand description
A commitment is like a sealed envelope. You put some information inside the envelope, and then seal (commit) it. You can’t change what you’ve said, but also, no-one knows what you’ve said until you’re ready to open (open) the envelope and reveal its contents. Also it’s a special envelope that can only be opened by a special opener that you keep safe in your drawer.
Structs
- There are also different types of commitments that vary in their security guarantees, but all of them are represented by binary data; so HomomorphicCommitment implements ByteArray.
Enums
- The extension degree for extended Pedersen commitments. Currently this is limited to adding 5 base points to the default Pedersen commitment, but in theory it could be arbitrarily long, although practically, very few if any test cases will need to add more than 2 base points.
Traits
