【Abstract】Recently, with the rapid development of blockchain technology, the information interaction and value transfer problems between different blockchains have become the focus of research. The cross-chain technology is to solve the cross-chain operation problems of assets and data between different chains. However, the existing cross-chain technology has the problem of identity privacy leakage. Therefore, this article proposes a cross-chain privacy protection scheme for consortium blockchains based on group signature, certificate authority, and relay chain. The scheme is divided into three cross-chain service layers, called the management layer, the transaction layer, and the group layer. The management layer is responsible for the forwarding of cross-chain transactions, the transaction layer includes the blockchains that actually participate in cross-chain transactions, and the group layer is responsible for group signature related work. Through this scheme, the identity privacy of both parties to the transaction can be protected during the cross-chain transaction process.
