In an electronic cash implementing method using a trustee, a user registers his identification information IDU and anonymous public key N with the trustee and receives a license (B,I). The user processes the license (B,I) by a public key corresponding to the amount to be issued and sends the processed information to a bank to have it attach a blind signature to the information so that the user obtain electronic cash C from the blind signature. The user transmits to a shop the information B,I,C,N and a digital signature that assures the divisional use of the electronic cash. The shop verifies the validity of the information B and C and accepts it as cash and sends a history H of communication with the user to the bank and receives a payment therefrom. The bank places all received communication histories under its supervision and makes a check to see if the amount x spent by the electronic cash C is in excess of its face value X, and if so, informs the trustee of the information N contained in the communication history. The trustee uses the information IDU thus received to specify the corresponding user identification information IDU. <IMAGE> |
