Privacy

Privacy is core to the DNA of IoTeX. The privacy provided by Bitcoin and Ethereum is limited to pseudonymity; transaction details including amount and the assets are exposed to the public. In addition, the metadata of a transaction and its relationships with other transactions can be easily inferred. IoTeX enables built-in privacy-preserving transaction with our innovative, lightweight stealth address for receiver privacy, constant-size ring signature for sender privacy, and BulletProof for hiding the amount of the transactions.
