Anonymous Atomic Locks (A2L)

A2L [1] is a cryptographic construction for building secure, privacy-preserving, interoperable, and fungibility-preserving payment channel hub (PCH). A2L builds on a novel cryptographic primitive that realizes a three-party protocol for conditional transactions, where the intermediary (tumbler) pays the receiver only if the latter solves a cryptographic challenge with the help of the sender. This repository includes implementation of A2L with instantiations based on Schnorr and ECDSA signatures.
