Mask - A Mobile Ether Mixer #4

Status Hackathon Submission

Type: Bot with web view interface. Github Repo: Coming soon. Description:

Mask is a decentralized mixer for Ethereum using ring signatures to hide the flow of money. It is an opt-in service that allows an individual address to disrupt the tracking of their identity. Being that one of the main ways people acquire cryptocurrency is through centralized services such as GDAX and Coinbase which require a user's real identity, a way to "mask" ether is needed to protect the privacy and purchasing power of individuals.

The implementation being submitted as my entry to the hackathon is a proof of concept mobile client that makes it easy for anyone in the world to make, join and withdraw ether from a mixing contract. The code is heavily influenced and forked from the open source project by Andrew Lakar named "Laundromat" with my main contribution being a UX overhaul that makes the service integrated into Status.im for people without access to PCs.

It works by TODO
