Research direction

Open the Confidential Transactions page linked in the issue and inspect its CTE prefix explanation. Verify the stated prefixes for Live Liquid and elementsregtest from the issue context, then update the page to explain sender/receiver-only knowledge and the combination of the public address with the receiver’s blinding keys. Done means the page no longer presents CTE as the current prefix and includes both clarifications.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

https://elementsproject.org/features/confidential-transactions

That page refers to CTE being the prefix but I think it's VJ for Live Liquid and in elementsregtest it's Azp.

We should also note somewhere that that address format is only known to the sender and receiver and that it is a combination of the public address (what you see in blockstream.info for example) and the blinding keys the receiver uses.
