Implementing Confidential Assets in PoW/PoS Private Blockchain: The Zano Experience

In the presentation, we detail the integration of confidential assets within the Zano blockchain. This initiative enables anonymous asset transfers and asset swaps (referred to as 'Ionic swaps') involving multiple asset types within a single transaction. Additionally, we will discuss how Confidential Assets are combined with Zarcanum, a Proof-of-Stake scheme, to facilitate egalitarian and anonymous staking with hidden amounts.
