{wiki=Common_reference_string_model}

The Common Reference String (CRS) model is a cryptographic model used in the contextual design of various cryptographic protocols, particularly in zero-knowledge proofs, secure multi-party computation, and other scenarios involving public parameters. The main purpose of the CRS model is to simplify the construction and analysis of cryptographic protocols by introducing a common string that all parties can access and use.
