cryptoconditions 0.8.0

Multi-algorithm, multi-level, multi-signature format for expressing conditions and fulfillments according to the Interledger Protocol (ILP).

Python implementation of Crypto-Conditions. Multi-algorithm, multi-level, multi-signature format for expressing conditions and fulfillments according to the Interledger Protocol (ILP)

Crypto Conditions

• See draft of specification at draft-thomas-crypto-conditions-02.

• The RFC is also on github under rfcs/crypto-conditions.

• The Crypto-Conditions specification is part of the Interledger Protocol (ILP).

Motivation

We would like a way to describe a signed message such that multiple actors in a distributed system can all verify the same signed message and agree on whether it matches the description.

This provides a useful primitive for distributed, event-based systems since we can describe events (represented by signed messages) and therefore define generic authenticated event handlers.
