Ring Signatures (Trac #1926)

Would be pretty freakin' awesome.

Ring signatures let people prove that they are a member of a group without revealing their identity. These groups can be spontaneously created. Wikipedia has a good article.

There are implementations for ring sigs (with elliptic curve keys) floating around the web. I know that the Monero project made one - look up monero-project/urs on github.

How hard would it be to implement these for I2P-Bote?
