# Wallet & Asset Layer

At the heart of on-chain privacy is Invinos’ ghost wallet system. These wallets are temporary, ephemeral addresses generated automatically for each new financial session. They are never reused and never linked to a central identity or login.

When interacting with dApps, these ghost wallets route through a transaction mixer called zkMixer. This system allows users to deposit an asset (like BTC) and withdraw a different asset (like ETH) from a separate address and chain — breaking the link between source and destination.

The wallet layer ensures that no cluster analysis can link your usage patterns across DeFi protocols, NFT platforms, or governance participation. It also prevents front-running, address reputation bias, and identity correlation in on-chain environments.
