Abstract

We present on/off-Blockchain schemes for storing private data within the framework of public Blockchains that conceal its content and origin, spreading the data using information dispersal algorithm (IDA) [5] for preserving storage efficiency.

We thank the Lynne and William Frankel Center for Computer Science, the Rita Altura Trust Chair in Computer Science. This research was also partially supported by a grant from the Ministry of Science and Technology, Israel & the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), and the German Research Funding Organization (DFG, Grant#8767581199).
