Can you help me understand something about Zcash? Do buckets need to be decrypted for the network on spend? Or is there a way to append a zk-proof that the bucket contains enough to fund follow-on buckets?
I'm probably wasting your time a little by asking, but I don't want to rely on my own reading to get a solid understanding.
This. :) (Alongside a demonstration that it wasn't spent before.)
1) You have 50 coins in a 'bucket' or address? 2) You send 18 to a friend 3) You send 32 t yourself.
So you create two encrypted buckets, 18 in one, and 32 in the other. They seem to be the equivalent of UTXOs. I'm not clear if they need to be 'revealed' to be spent though.
