Abstract: This disclosure relates to anonymous transactions based on ring signatures. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a remittance transaction. The remittance transaction is generated by a client device of a remitter by assembling unspent assets in an account corresponding to the remitter and masked assets in an account corresponding to a masked participant. Key images are obtained from a linkable spontaneous anonymous group (LSAG) signature of the remittance transaction. Values of the key-images are based on a private key, a public key, and unspent assets of the remitter. The LSAG signature is verified. The LSAG signature is generated by the client device of the remitter based on the private key and the public key of the remitter, and a second public key of the masked participant. The remittance transaction is executed when a transaction execution condition is met.
