Transaction details
All private information
What They Prove:
Transaction is valid
Without revealing information
Complete privacy
Security maintained
Network Privacy
Encrypted Communication
All Communication Encrypted:

No plaintext data
Encrypted channels
Privacy maintained
Infrastructure Privacy:
Data processed in enclaves
Node operators cannot see
Complete privacy
Infrastructure privacy
Metadata Protection
Timing Protection
How It's Protected:
Batching transactions
Timing obfuscation
No timing correlation
Privacy maintained
Why It Matters:
Timing can reveal information
Protected by design
Cannot correlate
Privacy guaranteed
Network Metadata
IP Address Protection:
Relayers hide IPs
No IP correlation
Privacy maintained
Complete protection
Network Patterns:
Patterns obfuscated
Cannot analyze
Privacy maintained
