What are Crypto Stealth Addresses & How do they work
Stealth addresses are revolutionizing privacy in blockchain transactions, offering a more secure way to obscure transaction history. Unlike traditional public addresses that can be traced, stealth addresses create a one-time address for each transaction, enhancing the confidentiality of digital currency transfers. This work in the following steps:
1. Stealth Address Creation: The recipient, say Bob generates two cryptographic keys: a public key (shared with Alice) and a private key (kept confidential). 2. Transaction Setup: Alice uses Bob's public key to create a unique address for their transaction, unlinkable to Bob’s public blockchain address. 3. Sending the Funds: Alice sends cryptocurrency to this one-time address, posting an ephemeral public key for Bob on the blockchain. 4. Receiving the Funds: Bob decrypts the stealth address using Alice’s cryptographic information and accesses the funds securely.
This process, powered by the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol, ensures that transactions remain anonymous and untraceable, providing an extra layer of security in crypto transfers.
