Privacy

Unlinkability

Unlinkability means an observer cannot connect two on-chain events — for example your deposit and your payout — to the same person.

Transparent blockchains such as Bitcoin and Ethereum expose every transaction. Privacy comes from breaking heuristics: address reuse, timing and amount correlation, common-input ownership. A cross-asset swap with an extra hop makes amount and timing matching far harder.

On Swap.bz

Private Swap targets unlinkability between the wallet you send from and the wallet you receive to. It does not hide your activity from the exchange partners themselves.
