Starknet introduces wallet privacy feature for DeFi activity

Summary

Starknet has launched Shadow Accounts, which give users separate persistent addresses for different DeFi applications. Funded through shielded balances in the STRK20 privacy pool, the accounts obscure their link to a user’s main wallet, while their transactions, balances and positions remain publicly visible. Users can deposit assets through integrated apps and maintain positions under separate onchain identities. StarkWare says the feature may expand to lending, staking, trading and other uses, following its recent STRK20 privacy framework and private identity-verification demonstration.
