The recent pandemic of novel coronavirus introduces a new challenge to balancing social welfare, the economy, and privacy while reducing contact among individuals To reduce the reproduction rate without spoiling our economy, we need good incentive mechanisms to reduce the possibility of spreading the virus as well as good privacy enhancing techniques Unfortunately, some of the recent approaches in contact tracing are not successful due to privacy concerns and a lack of sufficient incentive mechanisms to guide behavior instead of simply tracking infections In this paper, we provide a design using smart contracts as an incentive mechanism with enhanced privacy of user location information We utilize encrypted data calculated from a set of network routing information, and a plaintext equality test of a public key cryptosystem to estimate the duration one is present at the same location By staying at the same location longer, a user can obtain greater rewards We have implemented a proof concept of this scheme to evaluate its efficiency We also discuss financial regulation and economic viewpoints © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG |
