PathShuffle: Credit Mixing and Anonymous Payments for Ripple

Abstract: Abstract:The I owe you (IOU) credit network Ripple is one of the most prominent alternatives in the burgeoning field of decentralized payment systems. Ripple's path-based transactions set it apart from cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Its pseudonymous nature, while still maintaining some regulatory capabilities, has motivated several financial institutions across the world to use Ripple for processing their daily transactions. Nevertheless, with its public ledger, a credit network such as Ripple is no differe… Show more

“…Ripple does not natively support atomic transactions with multiple sources and destinations, but native support could easily be added, similar to Stellar. Even without native support, a form of atomic payments can be added on top of Ripple using the PathJoin protocol [35]. However, to use this protocol to ensure transaction atomicity, service providers would need to interact with each other and would need to keep track of the ledger state.…”

“…Multiple research works have shed light on various aspects of payment-channel networks, such as security [35], [39], [42], privacy [34], [38], [45], [46], concurrency [38], routing [37], [51], [54], [56], liquidity [23], [43], efficiency [24], [25], [57], interoperability [44] and incentive compatibility [29]. Most of these works lack a quantitative analysis of the impact of their findings in the current LN.…”

“…Their study links wallets that belong to the same user and deanonymizes the transactions associated with the main gateways. Their follow-up work [33] presents a pathmixing protocol to allow anonymous transactions in the Ripple network, thereby mitigating privacy breaches.…”

“…Among early academic efforts, Armknecht et al [1] and Di Luzio et al [25] present basic statistics of the Ripple network usage such as transaction volume, and consider the centralized nature of the Ripple blockchain consensus process respectively. Moreno-Sanchez et al [33,34] focus on deanonymization attacks and privacy enhancing solutions for users. Nevertheless, the Ripple network is yet to get its due attention similar to Bitcoin [2,6,10,27,44] from the academic community.…”
