What - you mean like the Diety of Cryptography (Bruce Schneier) figured out how to do 10+ years ago ? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0471117099?ie=UTF8&tag=ba

  Where does applied crypto talk about anonymous currency? I read Cryptography Engineering (its successor) last year, and don't think I remember anything about that ... I'm sure it discusses standard public key crypto, but it's a huge leap to go from that to a truly anonymous digital currency. Even with blind signatures it's really hard to prevent the 'bank' from maintaining an audit trail. My understanding is that even Bitcoin maintains an auditable transaction trail, so it's still not as good as cash.
