title: Triptych accepted for publication
summary: Triptych, a zero-knowledge proving system for confidential transactions, is reviewed and accepted for publication

Contributing researchers to the [Monero Research Lab](/resources/research-lab/) are pleased to announce that the [Triptych](https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/018) zero-knowledge proving system for confidential transactions has been reviewed and accepted to the [ESORICS CBT 2020](https://deic-web.uab.cat/cbt/cbt2020/) workshop for presentation and publication.
Triptych uses a zero-knowledge proving system to construct a particular type of linkable ring signature that can be used in confidential transaction protocols. Unlike currently-deployed methods like [CLSAG]({{ site.baseurl_root }}/2020/07/31/clsag-audit.html), Triptych proofs grow very slowly (logarithmically) as the size of the transaction anonymity set increases. Triptych transactions also benefit from specialized optimizations that allow for efficient verification.
While we are still investigating technical details required for a future deployment of Triptych into the Monero protocol, it is very exciting to see the paper accepted for publication! We hope that the cryptographic community finds it useful.
