  • The AnonCreds Methods Registry: https://hyperledger.github.io/anoncreds-methods-registry

  • The v1.0 implementation in Rust is here: https://github.com/hyperledger/anoncreds-rs

  • The v1.0 implementation is dependent on this Rust CL Signatures implementation: https://github.com/hyperledger/anoncreds-clsignatures-rs

• AnonCreds v2.0

  • The initial framework for the v2.0 specification repository is here: https://github.com/hyperledger/anoncreds-spec-v2

  • Underlying AnonCreds v2.0 are cryptographic libraries in Hyperledger Labs Agora

• Welcome and Introductions

• Announcements:

• Any updates to the Agenda?

• Oracle Labs progress report on a higher layer abstraction based on AnonCreds v2 and other signature schemes – Mark, Harold

• Status updates from current work:

  • Revocation Manager for ALLOSAUR Project – Hyperledger Mentorship project being executed by @VictorH2208Project plan

  • MPC part of ALLOSAUR is done – Mike – oblivious transfer and homomorphic – possibly a separate repo – Beaver Triples (based on "Beaver's Trick" from the 90s) – public component and ABC – proving A*B = C – simplifies communications.

  • Updates on Agora contributions and audits

    • Verifiable secret sharing – almost ready to contribute, will update Genaro with the same changes and contribute soon. End of week???  Maybe...
