We describe two simple, efficient and effective credential pseudonymous certificate systems, which also support anonymity without the need for a trusted third party. The second system provides cryptographic protection against the forgery and transfer of credentials. Both systems are based on a new paradigm, called self-blindable certificates. Such certificates can be constructed using the Weil pairing in supersingular elliptic curves.
