Zk-Nym Contract

ℹ️

Note that within the monorepo contract repo this contract is referred to as ecash. This is a historical artifact that hasn't yet been changed.

This contract is a hub for zk-nym related actions, being called by either:

  • the zk-nym payment backend
  • nodes running in Gateway mode
  • the multisig contract

Functionality

  • The following functionality is controlled by the multisig contract:

    • getting the list of blacklisted addresses who have tried to double-spend a zk-nym.
    • proposing to add an address to the blacklist.
    • executing an open proposal.

  • The the zk-nym payment backend can deposit funds with information used to identify the deposit.

  • Finally, nodes running as Gateways can create a proposal to redeem a set of spend zk-nyms.

The addresses of deployed smart contracts can be found in the network-defaults (opens in a new tab) directory of the codebase alongside other network default values.
