Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020180487A1] Described is a system for selective transparency in a public ledger. In operation, a first submission by a first entity is logged to the public ledger. The submission is a data entry with a message M and an identification number (ID). Separately, a linkage by a second entity is recorded. The linkage is an encryption and commitment linking the submission by the first entity to a second submission by the second entity. The linkage can be verified through a series of processes, such as by determining a value of linkage verification information. The value of the linkage verification information and corresponding block number is then transmitted to a third entity. The third entity reads the commitments from block Nt and verifies that the commitments are commitments to the same ID using the linkage verification information.
