What Is Suterusu (SUTER)?
SUTER is the native token of Suterusu, which is a privacy protocol that enables users to transform from a pseudonymous way of transacting on the blockchain to a completely anonymous way. Check out the Suterusu price chart to see the live SUTER price. The Suterusu crypto project aims to achieve complete anonimity by eliminating the need of going through KYC, as it employs a modified version of the zk-SNARK technology called ZK-ConSNARK.
ZK-ConSNARK does not require a trusted setup, which makes it safe and transparent. Besides, compared to other similar methods, the algorithm's proof size is decreased while its proof production and verification efficiency are increased.
In addition to that, Suterusu employs a technology called the Suter Shield. It ensures that user deposit and withdrawal addresses don’t match, so there is no way to trace the origin of transactions. The Suter Shield transforms the assets deposited by users into Suter-Assets. So, for example, if a user deposits ETH tokens, he/she gets Suter-ETH. By utilizing the homomorphic public-key encryption, these new assets are added to the Suter account. Suter-ETH is converted back to ETH through the process of burning.
Lastly, note that Suterusu provides its users with the Suter Virtual Machine (SuterVM), which supports Ethereum-based smart contracts.
