Fair Electronic Cash Based on a Group Signature Scheme

Several new group signature schemes have been proposed in recent years. In addition, several applications for group signatures (including electronic cash) have been suggested. A new cash scheme based on a recent group signature by Ateniese, Camenisch, Joye and Tsudik is presented. Its construction uses a general framework suitable for a number of group signature schemes. We also identify the challenges faced by such schemes.
