Hi Kenshiro, That is not how the BIP process works. Instead of requesting the creation of a BIP, you just create one. :) Re CT in Bitcoin, I have my doubts whether you can get consensus for that. >From section 4.6 of the Bulletproofs paper [0]: "Bulletproofs ... are computationally binding. An

Hi, I think Confidential Transactions (CT) are a great idea to provide enough privacy for normal users (hidden amounts) and fungibility. I would like to request the creation of a BIP to implement CT in Bitcoin Core. I read that CT are already implemented in Grin and Monero so it looks that CT
