# Stealth Wallet

*Think of this as your savings or investment account — but fully private. Your onchain activity stays yours, and yours alone.*

When you create your Stealf account, you can import an existing wallet or create a new one. Either way, Stealf never stores your private key — ever.

From this wallet, you can send, receive, swap, shield your assets, and invest — all privately.

#### What do private transactions really mean?

The transaction still happens on-chain — it's real, it's valid, it settles like any other. But what we hide is the story behind it.

We can break the link between who sent and who received. Or hide the amount entirely. This is made possible by a shared pool — funded by everyone who uses it — where your transaction blends in with thousands of others, leaving no traceable trail.

#### Powered by [Umbra](https://umbraprivacy.com) & [Arcium](https://www.arcium.com)

Your private wallet is powered by Umbra, a privacy protocol built on Solana. Umbra adds a privacy layer on top of standard SPL and Token-2022 tokens, using Arcium's multi-party computation (MPC) to handle confidential operations — without ever exposing your data on-chain.

Our mission is simple : let you invest freely while preserving true financial privacy.

**Shield your assets**

Move your tokens from your public wallet into an encrypted account — your balance becomes hidden from everyone, except those you explicitly authorize. Note : the deposit transaction itself is visible on-chain. Only what happens after is private.

**Privacy transfers**

Two modes available :

* **Confidential transfer** — the transaction amount is hidden
* **Anonymous transfer** — the link between sender and receiver is broken via a mixer pool, with no on-chain connection between entry and exit points

**Control who sees what**

You can grant selective viewing access to auditors or compliance systems — without exposing your full transaction history.

**Claim your funds**

The sender chooses the transfer mode. Depending on the mode, either the receiver decides when to claim their funds, or the sender triggers the release.\
