Privacy-Preserving Outsourced Witness Updates for Append-Only RSA Accumulators (opens in new tab)

Append-only accumulators are a natural way to realize compact public-state registries, but under high-frequency updates, witness maintenance becomes a severe challenge because each insertion typically invalidates most existing witnesses. This challenge is particularly acute for intermittently online users in anonymous credential systems, who cannot continuously synchronize update information, while directly outsourcing witness updates may make repeated requests linkable. In this paper, we pre...
