How to Explain Zero-Knowledge Protocols to Your Children (1998) [pdf]

IMO a better introduction to ZKPs is http://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2014/11/zero-knowled...

The easiest introduction I've seen is the Alice and Bob example in this paper, http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v510/n7506/full/nature1... Plus the paper itself was pretty interesting

...can't believe I wasted 5min reading this. Why OP, why?

I was just wrote a zero knowledge architecture section of a whitepaper. For a second there I was so excited to learn a new, simple way to explain it... sigh

I don't get it.

my son would be asleep after reading this
