Title:
RECEIPT-FREE ELECTRONIC BETTING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3730700
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PURPOSE: To provide a safe receipt-free betting system by using algorithm based upon number theory.
CONSTITUTION: A bet generating center 10 generates a betting choice to each better or each bet selecting means 12. Ciphering or shuffling is applied to a bet and the result of ciphering and shuffling is sent to the bet selecting means 12 together with information on the method of applying shuffling to the bet without being intercepted on the way. The information is preferably transmitted through a safe tapping-disabled channel 16(i). Bet generation and shuffling verification using chameleon commitment and mutual communication proof can also be applied to this system. Thereby the betting system can be attained by using the tapping-disabled channel and a current personal computer provided with an access means to an electronic bulletin board.
