Description

The first on-chain untraceable, unidentifiable private payments on Mantle Network

Simply means: Stealth Crypto Payments using multilayer forks

Powered by ECDH + secp256k1 + BIP 0352/EIP 5564 + ROFL DarkPool Mixer


๐Ÿšจ The Problem: Financial Privacy is Broken

Real-Life Story

Alice, a legendary dev, won the Move AI Hack and received $13,000 prize money.

Bob, another participant who won another prize in the same hackathon, discovered his co-founder wasn't trustworthy about receiving prize money. Bob texted all 12 winners asking for the organizer's wallet address. Within minutes, using blockchain explorers and intelligence tools, he identified:

  • Which wallet belonged to whom

  • Exactly how much each person received

  • Their entire transaction history

This is a serious concern. Nobody wants their wallet exposed โ€” it makes them vulnerable to targeted attacks, extortion, and financial loss.

The Core Issues

โŒ Payments on public blockchains are NOT private

  • Traceable through tools like Arkham Intelligence

  • Trackable via Dune Analytics and explorers

  • Identifiable by anyone with basic skills

โŒ Results:

  • Fear of transacting

  • Inconvenience for legitimate users

  • Financial loss from targeted attacks

  • Privacy violations for everyone


โœ… The Solution: PrivatePay

Screenshot 2026-01-16 at 3 46 04โ€ฏPM

Where every transaction is fully private, anonymous, unidentifiable, and untrackable.

Core Benefits

  • โœจ Sender privacy: Your wallet is never linked to the transaction

  • โœจ Receiver privacy: Recipients' identities remain hidden

  • โœจ Observer blindness: Third parties see nothing linkable

  • โœจ Simple UX: Like Stripe links, but every transaction is a new, invisible wallet
