MNT-Stealth – Private On-Chain Fund Reception on Mantle

website - mnt-stealth.vercel.app

The Problem MNT-Stealth Solves
Public blockchains expose wallet addresses by default. Every transaction permanently reveals the receiver’s address, enabling address tracking, transaction linking, and balance analysis. This lack of receiver privacy puts users at risk, discourages institutional adoption, and limits real-world DeFi use cases such as payroll, grants, and DAO payments.

Current Privacy Gaps

Traditional Transactions
Both sender and receiver addresses are visible on-chain. Anyone can trace payments, link identities, and analyze transaction histories.

Sender-Focused Privacy Tools
Some privacy tools hide the sender, but the recipient address remains public. The final destination of funds can still be tracked.

Why This Is Not Enough
Most privacy solutions ignore receiver privacy, leaving a critical gap in on-chain financial confidentiality.

The MNT-Stealth Solution

MNT-Stealth introduces receiver-side privacy on Mantle using ERC-5564 stealth addresses. Users can receive funds through one-time, unlinkable addresses while remaining fully EVM-compatible.

How MNT-Stealth Works

Stealth Address Setup
The receiver generates a stealth meta-address derived from their public key. This address can be shared publicly without exposing the real wallet address.

One-Time Payment Address
The sender derives a unique stealth address using ECDH and ephemeral keys. Each transaction uses a fresh, unlinkable address.

Private On-Chain Transaction
Funds are sent to the stealth address as a normal on-chain transaction. The receiver’s actual wallet address never appears on-chain.

Receiver Detection and Claim
The receiver scans the blockchain using view tags and private keys to detect and securely claim incoming funds.

User Experience

Sender Experience
Senders simply use the receiver’s public stealth meta-address and send funds normally. No additional steps or tools required.

Receiver Experience
Receivers complete a one-time setup, monitor incoming stealth payments, and claim funds privately. Each payment remains unlinkable.

Privacy Benefits

Receiver Identity Protection
The real wallet address is never exposed.

Unlinkable Payments
Each transaction uses a unique address, preventing address reuse and clustering.

Resistance to Blockchain Analysis
Transactions cannot be linked through history, balances, or heuristics.

Security and Compatibility
Fully EVM-compatible and compliant with ERC-5564.

Why MNT-Stealth Matters

MNT-Stealth enables private payments on Mantle without protocol changes. It unlocks privacy-preserving use cases for individuals, DAOs, and institutions while maintaining security, transparency, and composability.

Future Scope

Full sender and receiver privacy
Privacy-enabled MNT token standard
Private DEX trades on Mantle
Encrypted transaction metadata
Cross-chain private fund transfers

Summary

MNT-Stealth solves the missing half of blockchain privacy — the receiver.
It brings practical, production-ready privacy to the Mantle ecosystem while preserving decentralization and EVM compatibility.
