This ringsignature stuff is really cool, but what would be a usecase?

Recently analyzing https://github.com/AbdelStark/nostringer-rs with Abdel (nprofile…lw5g) (ring signatures) led me to write this in Python:

https://gist.github.com/AdamISZ/1012d90d47c53a9d4f99995877548b4f

, just a bare bones Back-LSAG impl. that doesn't include the ring in the challenge hash. As we discussed at length in https://github.com/AbdelStark/nostringer-rs/issues/24 there does not appear to be a security vulnerability; the ring is implicitly committed.
