For each $i = 1,\ldots,\kappa$, the customer randomly generates
a transfer private key $t^{(i)}_s$ and computes
\begin{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\item the transfer public key $T^{(i)}_p := t^{(i)}_s G$ and
\item the new coin secret seed $L^{(i)} := H(c'_s T_p^{(i)})$.
\end{itemize}
\end{enumerate}
We have computed $L_i$ as a Diffie-Hellman shared secret between
the transfer key pair $T^{(i)} := \left(t^{(i)}_s,T^{(i)}_p\right)$
and old coin key pair $C' := \left(c_s', C_p'\right)$;
as a result, $L^{(i)} = H(t^{(i)}_s C'_p)$ also holds.
Now the customer applies key derivation functions $\KDF_{\textrm{blinding}}$ and $\KDF_{\textrm{Ed25519}}$ to $L^{(i)}$ to generate
\begin{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\item a blinding factor $b^{(i)} = \FDH_K(\KDF_{\textrm{blinding}}(L^{(i)}))$.
\item $c_s^{(i)} = \KDF_{\textrm{Ed25519}}(L^{(i)})$
