Privacy rails

Every slice is funded through a privacy rail chosen per chain, so no deposit links it to you or to the other slices.

Why funding needs a rail

Fresh accounts are only unlinkable if their money is. If every slice were funded from your main wallet, one look at the deposits would tie them together. A privacy rail breaks that trail: each account is funded so that no deposit links it to your main wallet or to the other slices.

Candidate rails

Rails are chosen per chain. The candidates are:

Railgun
WhereEthereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, BNB Chain
RoleShielded pool for funding slices
Privacy Pools
WhereEVM chains
RoleShielded pool for funding slices
NEAR Confidential Intents
WhereCross-chain
RoleFunding slices on one chain from assets on another
Solana shielding pools, such as Umbra
WhereSolana
RoleShielded funding for Solana venues

The rail used on each chain is announced with each venue.

Cross-chain funding

Fund slices on one chain from assets on another without a public bridge trail. Faster rails are one of the $MUTEX tier benefits.
