🔐 Why Reusing Wallets Is a Privacy Disaster (and How We Fix It)

Most crypto users don’t realize just how easy it is to trace their transactions on-chain.
You send funds from your main wallet to another account… and boom — every step is permanently public.

It’s like using the same passport for every border you cross — and expecting no one to follow your trail.

Even if you’re not doing anything sketchy, this level of exposure is dangerous:

• Centralized exchanges can flag incoming funds.
• NFT platforms can trace buyer histories.
• Hackers and bots can stalk wallet activity.

That’s why we never reuse output wallets.

Instead, we use:

• ✅ Randomized multi-hop routing
• ✅ Stealth branches
• ✅ Decoy wallets

So even if someone sees your final wallet, they’d have to guess the exact path backward — across potentially billions of permutations.

This isn’t privacy theater — it’s practical protection.

The goal isn’t to disappear.
It’s to break the link between where your funds came from… and where they go next.

We’re always improving our logic and welcome ideas from anyone working on similar things.
Open-source privacy is a team sport — so if you’re building something cool, say hi.
