1.Bittrex Global和Bittrex有什么区别?这是一个王者归来的故事吗?
What is the difference between Bittrex Global and Bittrex, and is it a comeback story?
bittrex Chris：
That’s a very good question. And it’s a bit of a yes and a no! As one of the first real exchanges in the market, we staked our claim onthe space with a commitment to security - that’s never changed, and we’ve remained consistent. So in that regard we’ve stuck to ourcourse remarkably. But as you know, in the past few years we’ve seen a boom of impressive competition in the space, and rather than chase certain types of exposure and growth, we’ve remained focused on our core users - traders who want the most secure and trusted exchange.As we now regain market share through expansion into more of the retail spaces and through supporting and launching innovativenew tokens, we have no problem if people get a bit of a comeback vibe off us :)
这是一个很好的问题。这是一个即肯定又否定的回答! 作为市场上第一批真正的交易所之一，我们在交易所这个领域对安全性有最佳承诺，这一点从未改变。我们一直保持着一致性。并且非常坚持我们的初衷。但就像你知道那样，在过去的几年里，我们在这个领域看到了令人印象深刻的竞争，我们没有去追求某些类型的曝光和增长，而是继续关注我们的核心用户—那些想要最安全、最值得信任的交易所的交易员。如果因为我们现在通过扩张重新获得了市场份额，二级市场更加活跃，并通过支持和推出一系列创新的新代币新项目，如果人们从我们这里感受到一点王者归来的氛围，我们也觉得挺好的:)

金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫 :
7.很多用户在Bittrex Global上抱怨kyc过程，你能帮我澄清一下需要什么标准，以及大多数人在哪些方面验证失败了吗?
Many users complain about the kyc process on Bittrex Global, can you help clarify what standard are required and wheremost people have failed?
bittrex Chris：
We are regulated in Liechtenstein and subject to the same standards as European banks. While this can create a bit of extra effort to create an account and onboard with us for some customers - we think the benefits customers gain far outweigh the effort. In particular, it means that users can trust that their funds are safe, that our markets are legitimate, and that they are protected from criminal activity. As blockchain becomes more mainstream this will help with adoption and benefit the entire ecosystem.
We are also working everyday to make the process more seamless and easier for our users. In particular, we are working to allowcustomers to use more IDs and more forms of simple documentation to prove identity, and we are also working on local language support to make the entire on boarding process easier for everyone.
我们在列支敦士登受到监管，与欧洲银行遵循同样的标准。这样客户就可以在账户创建时，就认证我们 - 客户在验证身份方面获得的好处远远超过这个费力的过程。这意味着用户可以相信他们的资金是安全的，我们的市场是合法的，他们受到保护，不受犯罪活动的伤害。随着区块链变得更加主流，这将有助于采用它，并使整个生态系统受益。
我们每天都在努力使这个过程对我们的用户来说更加无缝和简单。特别是，我们正在努力让客户使用更多的id和更多形式的简单文档来证明身份，我们还在致力于本地语言支持，以使每个人的审核和认证过程更容易。
金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫 :
8.你认为现在的加密货币市场是牛市还是熊市，2020年下半年怎么样?
What do you think about the current crypto market, it is in the bull market or a bear market and what about the second half of 2020.
bittrex Chris：
It’s definitely the start of a Bull. We are in the calm before the storm. We see the activity in the listing market ramping up at an incredible rate and all sorts of amazing products being launched. We also see mainstream awareness and big institutional funds moving from traditional assets into crypto. So I think we are at the start of a big run. And ultimately, the technology is too big to fail。
这绝对是牛市的开始。我们处于旋风来临前的平静中。我们看到上市市场的活动正以令人难以置信的速度增长，各种令人惊叹的产品正在推出。我们也看到主流意识和大型机构基金从传统资产转向加密投资领域。因此，我认为我们正处于一场大规模竞争的开端。最终，技术大到不能倒，对金融世界带来不可逆的转变。
金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫 :
9.您如何看待全球的整体监管发展，以及未来3-5年加密货币市场的发展情况
What do you think of overall regulation development globally, and what’s the crypto market in 3-5 years to come
bittrex Chris：
Regulation is inevitable. It clears the path for safe investment by traditional financial institutions. As a result, regulation is good for everyone in the industry. We will all profit from smart regulation.
As for the next 3 to 5 years, we will see increasing adoption and more importantly, increasing use cases and blockchain technology continues to grow.
监管是不可避免的。它为传统金融机构的安全投资扫清了道路。因此，监管对区块链行业的每个人都有好处。我们都将从明智的监管中获益。
在接下来的3到5年里，我们将看到越来越多的应用，更重要的是，越来越多的用例和区块链技术将继续增长。

bittrex Chris：
谢谢大家，我也非常感谢您和大家的提问
Thanks everyone, I also appreciate your and everyone’s questions
金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫 :
我们同时也得知Suter获得了Bittrex的选择和认可，即将登陆Bittrex，我们也好奇Suter有哪些过人之处，也希望接下来能够得到更深度的解读，下面有请Suter的灵魂人物，联合创始人，CTO林煌博士来给大家分享Suter的硬核技术和发展
金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫 :
What is Suterusu? 能否介绍下什么是suterusu?
Lin CTO ：
We believe Suterusu can bring true anonymous protection on transactions and users’ data, and in the future, there are only two options on mainstream blockchain technology, one is complete transparent on-chain activities, and the other is partially or ompletely anonymous user’s data and transactions protection with Suterusu’ privacy-preserving technology in conjunction with theunderlying technologies.
Suterusu brings an unprecedented level of privacy to all the cryptocurrency in the world. It integrates a state-of-the-art trustless ZK-ConSNARK scheme with almost constant size proofs, efficient proof generation and verification. Based on our novel ZK- ConSNARK scheme, Suterusu also introduces a Suter Virtual Machine (SuterVM) that supports both anonymous payment schemes for smart contract platforms such as Ethereum and anonymous BTC cross-chain transfer module.
Various sophisticated privacy-preserving DeFi functionalities such as collateral, Lending, DEX can be built on top of the technical modules provided by the SuterVM. To ensure the decentralization degree and responsiveness of our protocol, we adopt a novel on-chain governance mechanism, i.e., liquid decentralized meritocracy. In a word, Suterusu is an innovative privacy-protection protocol built on solid technology.
简单讲，Suterusu是基于可靠技术的创新型隐私保护协议。能够让所有的主流区块链交易变成隐私交易保护用户数据和资产安全，我们认为隐私是用户的权利而不是一种选择。
未来在公链上只有两种模式，一种是透明的交易，看到交易双方的所有数据，另外一种是使用了Suterusu智能合约的隐私交易，保证用户的交易安全。
Suterusu为现有的虚拟货币带来了前所未有的隐私保护。它集成了最先进的无需可信初 始化的ZK-ConSNARK方案，该方案证明所占空间几乎为常数的，且其证明的生成和验 证都极为高效。在我们新提出的零知识证明方案基础上，Suterusu还推出了支持智能合 约区块链的(如以太坊)隐私支付方案和比特币跨链匿名支付方案的Suter虚拟机 (SuterVM)。基于Suter虚拟机提供的技术模块，可以打造多种隐私保护的DeFi功能，比如抵押贷款，借贷及去中心化的交易所。为了保证我们协议的去中心化程度和响应灵敏度，Suterusu引入了流动性去中心化选贤制。
金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫:
Can you share more technical updates from Suteursu,
能够分享一下近期Suterusu的技术进展吗？
Lin CTO ：
我们最近发布了suterusu的测试协议。主要包含有如下几个功能
1.无需可信初始化的零知识证明，我们知道需要可信初始化的零知识证明方案在初始化过程中会涉及到一些陷? 知识，这个 有点类似于签名方案中的私钥。我们知道签名方案的私钥一旦泄漏，攻击者就可以使用私 钥生成无限数量的合法签名。
如果把这种情况映射到零知识证明中，这种陷阱? 信息被盗意味着攻击者可以生成无限量 的合法零知识证明。在Zcash这样的加密货币方案中，零知识证明是用于证明货币的所有 权和合法性，以便能够生成无限量的合法零知识证明，这种攻击意味着对手可以打印无限 数量的数字货币而无法被检测到。
尽管安全多方计算协议可以减轻可信初始化的影响，但没有从根本上解决这个问题。它仍然仅提供一个非常有限的安全级别，因为MPC协议有 可能会引入额外的漏洞，而且它最终仍是由有限的几方运行。
另外，现有的可信初始化的零知识证明方案的安全性往往是规约到一些最新提出的非标准 假设上。这些假设的安全性尚未在实践中经过全面测试。在数学家社区中，关于这些假设 是否安全其实也存在很多争议。因此，即使从纯粹的理论?度看，这些零知识证明方案的 安全性仍然值得怀疑。
Suter 1.0实现的零知识证明不需要可信初始化。所有初始化中的公开参数均通过 透明过程从对应群中随机选取。在Github repo里可以找到suter proof的实现，任何人都可 以通过检查我们的代码对这点进行验证。
最后，此测试协议中使用的零知识证明方案到安全性规约到标准离散对数假设上，这也是很 多在实践中广泛部署的各种密码方案的底层假设，因此我们方案的安全性基础非常牢固。
2.针对智能合约平台的匿名支付方案，目前市场上实现的通用匿名支付方案主要是服务于1层隐私硬币，例如zkash的zk-snark 或monero的环形保密交易等。一个智能合约平台的匿名支付方案和用于第1层隐私硬币的 方案差别在于:很多UTXO模型的第1层隐私硬币，他们往往使用数字承诺方案来保护交易中涉及金额。 如果接收者无法打开数字承诺，仅仅意味着以后无法使用这个UTXO帐户。因此，在 UTXO模型下，发送方在向接收方发送与转账对应的密钥时，通常不需要提供零知识证明 即可证明加密后的秘密合法性。
在基于帐户的模型中，所有转账金额最终都汇总到一个用户帐户中。因此，在该模型下， 即使有一次打开帐户接收到的转账金额的随机密钥不合法，就意味着该帐户的所有其他转 入金额都不能再使用了，因为聚合后的随机密钥无法用于打开相应的密文。
因此，需要用于智能合约平台的匿名支付方案提供零知识证明来证明所加密账户密钥的合 法性，来避免上述问题。这也意味着我们需要分别更改相应的转账一致性证明和范围证 明;Test protocol的匿名支付库为智能合约平台提供了转账一致性证明和范围证明。(转账一致性 证明是指转账交易中输入金额与输出金额之和相等。范围证明是指转账所涉及的金额属于 正确的范围，因此可以确保攻击者无法发起攻击以凭空印刷苏特币。)
最近，我们推出了一个去中心化隐私交易平台的产品，Suter Trade。该产品目前在测试阶段，支持合成资产的隐私交易和现货产品的的隐私交易。用户可以通过质押Suter 代币来交易合成资产，并且可以通过为流动性池子提供流动性来进行挖矿，对Suterusu的生态发展起了很大的作用。另外我们还发布了一些有关Suter虚拟机和链上管理机制的说明书。大家可以在 medium上看到这些文章。
1. Efficient zero-knowledge proofs without trusted setupThe trusted setup step of a zero-knowledge proof scheme involves trapdoor information, which is equivalent to the private key in asignature scheme. We know that once the private key of a signature scheme is stolen, an attacker can use the private key to generate an unlimited amount of legitimate signatures.
If we map it to the case of zero-knowledge proof, this kind of trapdoor information being stolen means that an attacker can generate unlimited amounts of legitimate zero- knowledge proofs. In a cryptocurrency scheme such as Zcash, zero-knowledge proof is used to the ownership and legitimacy of the currency, to be able to generate an unlimited amount of legal zero-knowledge proofs means the adversary can print unlimited amounts of currency without the possibility of being detected.Although running a secure multi-party computation protocol can mitigate the impact of trusted setup, it doesn’t really solve the problem. It still only provides a very limited security level since MPC might introduce extra vulnerability and in the end it is still run by a few parties.
In addition, the existing zero-knowledge proof schemes with trusted setup are based on non-standard assumptions proposed veryrecently. Their security has not been fully tested in practice. There are also lots of controversies regarding their security level inthe mathematician community. So even from a purely mathematical perspective, the security of these zero-knowledge proof schemes remain questionable.
The zero-knowledge proof implemented by Suter 1.0 does not require a trusted setup. All the parameters involved in the setup step are randomly chosen from the corresponding group through a transparent process. The implementation of our zero- knowledgeproof algorithm is in the public repository, Anyone can verify this by checking our code.
Lastly, the zero-knowledge proof scheme used in this test protocol is based on a standard discrete logarithm assumption, which is also the underlying assumption of various cryptographic schemes that have been widely deployed in practice, so the security groundof our scheme is very solid.
2. Anonymous payment for Smart Contracts platforms At present, the implementation of the general anonymous payment scheme in the market mainly aims to serve the layer-1 privacy coin, such as zk-snark for zcash or ring confidential transaction for monero, etc. The main difference between an anonymouspayment implementation for a smart contract platform and that for layer-1 privacy coin is: For the layer-1 privacy coin with an UTXO model, a digital commitment scheme is used to protect the transferred amount in a transaction. If a recipient cannot open the digital commitment, it only means that specific UTXO account cannot be used later.
Therefore, under the UTXO model, the sender usually does not need to provide a zero-knowledge proof to prove the legitimacy of the encrypted secret when sending the secret key corresponding to the encrypted amount to the recipient.
While in the account-based model, all the transfer amounts are eventually aggregated into one user account. Therefore, under this model, even if the random key of one encrypted transfer amount received by an account cannot be opened once, it would imply that all the other incoming amounts of the respective account cannot be used anymore, because the random key after aggregation cannot be used to open the corresponding ciphertext. .
Therefore, the anonymous payment scheme for the smart contract platform is required to provide zero-knowledge proof for the encryption of the account key to mitigate the aforementioned problems. This also implies we need to change the corresponding transfer consistency proof and range proof respectively; The anonymous payment library for the test protocol provides transfer consistency proof and range proof for the smart contract platforms. (The transfer consistency proof means that the sum of the input amounts and that of the output amounts is equal in a transfer contract. The range proof means that the amount involved in a transfer belongs to the correct range, and hence ensure that the attacker cannot launch an attack to print Suter coins out of thin air.)
Recently, we launched Suter Trade, a decentralized privacy-preserving trading platform product. The product is currently in the testing phase and it supports anonymous transactions for synthetic assets and spot products. Users can mortgage Suter tokens to trade synthetic assets and can mine sUSD by providing liquidity to the liquidity pool. This product will play a central role in the Suterusu ecosystem. In addition, we have released a few manuals regarding Suter VM and on-chain governance mechanisms. You can find these articles in the Suterusu Medium.
金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫 :
How to build Anonymous BTC transfer module?
如何打造比特币匿名转账模块?
Lin CTO ：
这个方案的大致想法有一部分和wBTC框架相似。我们的系统也是有资产保管人和商人这 两种?色，他们共同合作将用户的比特币映射成Suter的sBTC令牌。但是，我们与wBTC 的方案之间主要区别在于，我们利用zk-conSNARK技术来保障BTC跨链转账的匿名性，而wBTC则不考虑隐私问题。用户将与商家进行匿名原子交换，使用比特币交换商家的sBTC代币。商家则与资产保管 人发起铸造交易，在从商人那里收到等量的BTC之后，该人将创建sBTC代币铸造交易。 sBTC代币可以在不同商家之间私下转让。
用户也可以同商家交换他/她的sBTC代币以获 取等量的BTC。由于所有BTC最终都由资产托管人持有，因此商家和资产托管人需要时不 时地执行销毁合约，通过销毁商家账户的sBTC代币余额，来换取资产托管人发送等量的 BTC到商家的BTC地址里。
在代币铸造，转账和销毁过程中，将通过调用Suter匿名支付协议来保证交易保密性和用 户隐私。 由于用户持有的BTC和商家持有的sBTC代币的交换过程需要执行匿名原子交换 协议，因此白皮书中提出的匿名多跳锁(AMHL)技术可以用于确保此过程的隐私性。
The general idea is partially inspired by the wrapped BTC framework. Our system also relies on a consortium of asset custodians and merchants who work together to map the user’s Bitcoin to sBTC token on Sutersmart contract. However, the major difference between our design and theirs is that we leverage our zk-conSNARK technology to preserve the anonymity of BTC cross-chain transfer while privacy is not the major concern of the wrapped BTC framework.
The general idea is that a user will run an anonymous atomic swap protocol with the merchant to exchange his/her Bitcoin asset with the merchant’s sBTC tokens. In a separate procedure, the merchant will initiate a minting transaction with an asset custodian, who will then create a sBTC tokens minting contract after receiving equal amounts of BTCs from the merchant. The sBTC tokens can be transferred privately between different merchants. The user can also exchange his/her sBTC tokens with a merchant for equal amounts of BTCs. Since all the BTCs are eventually held by the asset custodian, the merchant and asset custodian need to run a burn contract every now and then so that sBTC token balance of the merchant’s account will be reduced in exchange for the asset custodian sending equivalent amounts of BTC to the merchant’s BTC address.
The Suter anonymous payment functionality will be invoked to guarantee transactional confidentiality during the token minting, transfer, and burning process. Since the exchange of BTC held by the users and the sBTC token held by Merchant requires an anonymous atomic swap, the anonymous multi-hop locks (AMHL) technique proposed in the whitepaper can be applied to guarantee the privacy of this process.
金色财经 CEO 安鑫鑫 :
How would you compare your project with similar projects such as Tornad o.cash?
和其他相似的项目如Tornado.cash相比Suterusu有何优势？
Lin CTO ：
1. Tornado的解决方案不能保护交易金额隐私。Suterusu的方案同时保证交易参与者 匿名性和交易数据保密性。
2. Tornado的方案和Zcash一样都基于ZK-SNARK，因此需要可信初始化。Suterusu 的方案则无需可信初始化，因此更加安全透明。
3. 和Tornado的方案只适用于以太坊不同，Suterusu针对智能合约平台的匿名支付方 案是通用的，换句话说他不仅仅支持以太坊还支持任意的智能合约平台，这也是为 何目前众多的智能合约平台项目和我们合作的原因。
4.Suterusu的虚拟机还提供了针对比特币的跨链匿名转账功能，这将为Suterusu的 生态系统带来更多的流动性。
5. 由于Suterusu的匿名支付方案同时支持智能合约平台和比特币跨链转账，我们提 供的技术模块之上还可以构建更为精妙复杂的Defi功能。
Lin CTO ：
The closest project to Suterusu is Tornado.cash, which is an anonymous payment layer for the Ethereum ecosystem. Our ZK-ConSNARK is superior in the following aspects:
1.Tornado’s solution does not provide transaction amount confidentiality. Our scheme provides transaction amount confidentiality while preserving the sender and receiver anonymity.
2.Tornado’s implementation is based on ZK-SNARK, which is the underlying technology for Zcash, and hence requires a trusted setup. As mentioned in the above, our scheme does not require a trusted setup, and hence is much more secure and transparent.
3.Finally, our anonymous payment protocol for smart contract platforms is universal, meaning it is not just applicable to the Ethereum platform but any smart contract platforms.
4.Our Suter VM also provides anonymous BTC cross-chain functionality that will bring more liquidity to our ecosystem.
5.Since our anonymous payment scheme supports both smart contract platforms and BTC cross-chain transfer, more sophisticated privacy-preserving Defi functionality can be built upon the aforementioned technical modules.
