Official Announcement Link: https://r5.network/posts/news-and-announcements/2102zkNet Protocol & Web Wallet LaunchWe’re excited to announce the launch of zkNet, a privacy-preserving protocol designed to bring enhanced confidentiality to on-chain transactions —
no wrappers, no bridges, just native privacy.zkNet introduces a mechanism called Private Internal Addresses (PIAs), which act as an abstraction layer between your main wallet and your on-chain activity. By routing funds through PIAs and scrubbing all relevant mappings upon address cycling, zkNet severs historical links between your wallet and transaction metadata, making it significantly harder to trace funds across time.
zkNet is not a full anonymizer — and it’s not meant to be. It’s a user-friendly obfuscation tool aimed at improving day-to-day privacy for regular users without requiring advanced operational security skills or technical setup. With proper usage, it provides a meaningful degree of discretion for those who value financial privacy on-chain.
The web wallet was built to be compatible with a multitude of wallet providers, and you can even use it with your Google, X, GitHub, or Discord accounts.
