description | Micropayments are one of the challenges in cryptocurrencies. Micropayments on the blockchain have the problem that the fee is high for the transfer amount. As a countermeasure, a method called Layer-two has been proposed to consolidate transactions outside the blockchain and improve the blockchain's throughput. As one of the existing Layer-two schemes, Decentralized Probabilistic Micropayments have been proposed. The winning amount is registered in the blockchain, and the lottery tickets are issued to be won with probability p , which allows us to aggregate approximately (1/p) transactions into one. Unfortunately, existing solutions do not allow for ticket transferability, and the smaller p , the more difficult it is to use them in the real world. Here we propose \textsf {VeloCash} , Decentralized Probabilistic Micropayments with Transferability, which preserves anonymity. By introducing tamper-proof assumptions for sending and receiving the tickets, we make p smaller. As a tamper-proof hardware assumption, \textsf {VeloCash} uses Attested Execution Secure Processors, a formal abstraction of secure processors with attested execution functionality and Direct Anonymous Attestation to achieve anonymity for sending and receiving tickets. \textsf {VeloCash} can detect double-spending attacks perfectly and revoke the adversary's device. |
