Abstract:	最近小額付款系統提供保護客戶個人隱私的能力，但是所提出的小額付款系統都只有提供使用者向商家購買物品的交易方式；然而會有商家有興趣想以低價購買使用者擁有的商品的情形，所以我們提出一個具有匿名性的雙向小額付款系統。在我們提出的新系統中，使用者不僅能匿名的向商家購買物品也能夠向商家販賣商品。在保護商家的利益上，新的系統提供探查機制可以去找出惡意使用者。此外在向匿名使用者購買物品後商家會獲得一些證據可用來證明是向那個來源使用者所購買的商品。新的系統不僅能滿足小額付款基本的安全要求，同時也達到使用者向商家銷售的公平性。此外也針對兩個提供匿名性與不可追蹤性的多商店小額付款機制，提出安全性方面的意見。 Micropayment schemes protecting customers’ identity privacy are proposed recently. Those proposed micropayment schemes only deal with payments for the transaction that customers buy goods from vendors. However, the customers also have some interesting goods with low price that vendors want to buy, so a bidirectional micropayment scheme with anonymous users is proposed. In our scheme, the customers not only buy goods from vendors but also sale goods to vendors in anonymous and fair way. To protect vendors’ benefits, our scheme also provides the exploring mechanism to find out who the malicious customers are. Moreover, after buying goods from anonymous customers, the vendor obtains some evidence to prove who the actual source of the bought goods is. Our scheme satisfies not only the basic security requirements of micropayment schemes but also the fairness of the sales from customers to vendors. Our simulation shows that our bidirectional scheme is practical in real life. Moreover, some security comments on two micropayment schemes for multi-merchants with anonymity and untraceability.
