We introduce mix servers to provide mix service for user to prevent attackers linking the input address with output address by using blind signature shceme, multisignature scheme. Lockcoin provides anonymity, scalability, bitcoin compatibillity, theft impossibility and accountability. We have proposed a prototype of Lockcoin based on bitcoin test network, experimental results show that our solution is efficient. Lockcoin's source codes are released on github.com/Northeastern-University-Blockchain/Lockcoin.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1811.04349v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1811.04349v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"lockcoin-a-secure-and-privacy-preserving-mix","repo_url":"https://github.com/Northeastern-University-Blockchain/Lockcoin","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
