A great update on Full-Chain Membership Proofs (FCMP++) in Monero!
Here's a summary of the key facts:
**What is FCMP++?**: A new protocol in Monero that includes a membership proof and spend-auth/linkability proof, enhancing privacy without revealing transaction origins.
**How it works**: Verifies that input is part of the full set of blockchain outputs within a Zero Knowledge (ZK) proof, ensuring privacy by hiding which specific output is being spent.
**Privacy First**: Expands anonymity set from 1 in 16 outputs to 1 in 100 million, keeping the output being spent hidden and not the input.
**Efficiency**: Optimizes computational resources, allowing Monero to scale even as the blockchain grows, with fast verification and privacy intact.
**No Centralization Risks**: Fully decentralized, no trusted setups or third parties needed, ensuring trustless privacy.
**Auditability & Trust**: Guarantees that all transaction inputs are verified on the blockchain, ensuring auditability without compromising privacy.
**Scalability Benefits**: Monero can scale without losing privacy or fungibility, even as the blockchain expands, ensuring privacy for all users.
**Crypto-Native Approach**: Designed with cryptographic rigor to protect Monero from attacks that try to de-anonymize transactions.
**Advancing Privacy Standards**: Ensures fully unlinkable and untraceable transactions, cementing Monero's place as the leading privacy coin.
**Appreciating the Devs**: Huge thanks to Luke Parker (@kayabaNerve) and the entire dev team for their work on FCMP++!
Overall, FCMP++ enhances privacy and scalability while maintaining decentralization in Monero.
