PROJECT: Survey of Cryptographic Auctions #writing #131

Open shannona opened 2 years ago

shannona commented 2 years ago

With the rise of digital assets, there is an increasing need for fair pricing and exchange between them.

For those of a more a cryptographic or mathematical bent, but are not software engineers, I'd love to see a survey of different auction types that now can be supported securely with modern cryptography. @shannona and I have a list of historical auction types and their utility for supporting different kinds of needs for auctions in different marketplaces, but many do not map to cryptographic solutions. We'd like to offer the academic cryptographer community a target list of auction types NOT currently supported, to encourage innovation.

Goal of this group would be to submit the survey as a peer-reviewed paper to an academic journal or conference, or just public on Arxiv.org and make it available to all.

Be sure to ask @ChristopherA and myself for our current (unpublished) document on auctions.
