Anonymous Transaction Relay Network
Anonymous Transaction Relay Network
Overview
The Anonymous Transaction Relay Network ensures that transactions on Solana can be broadcast without revealing sender identity, IP address, or wallet correlation.
Every transaction submitted through zkShine passes via Privacy Relayer Nodes, which re-encrypt, reroute, and resubmit transactions on behalf of users completely breaking the visible chain between wallet and on-chain action.
Core Features
Relayer Nodes Anonymize Transaction Origin Transactions are stripped of sender metadata before being broadcast to the network. The relayer substitutes its own network identity, ensuring full anonymity.
IP Masking & Traffic Obfuscation All user connections are tunnelled through zkShine’s encrypted routing system. IP addresses, network fingerprints, and timing patterns are randomized.
Anti Front-Running Protection zkShine uses a randomized delay and transaction-mixing algorithm to protect against mempool front-running and sandwich attacks.
Wallet Unlinkability Transactions cannot be associated with specific wallets. zkShine creates stealth submission pathways that unlink addresses and activity graphs.
Network Architecture
1. Client Layer (zkGateway)
Accepts user transactions from wallets and SDKs. Handles encryption and proof signing.
2. Relay Mesh (zkRelayer Network)
Distributed node mesh that rebroadcasts transactions anonymously using randomized paths.
3. Solana Validator Layer (Execution)
Final destination where transactions are validated, executed, and recorded on-chain.
Transaction Lifecycle
User initiates a transaction through zkShine SDK or compatible wallet.
Transaction is encrypted and sent to a zkGateway node.
Gateway signs and forwards the payload to a random zkRelayer.
zkRelayer re-encrypts and submits it to a Solana validator.
Transaction is executed on-chain without any visible trace of its origin.
Benefits
Full IP and wallet anonymity
Protection from data tracking and analytics tools
Compatibility with existing Solana wallets and dApps
Enhanced censorship resistance
