How private is Ergo blockchain?

Ergo is not private by default like Monero, but offers powerful optional privacy tools. ErgoMixer provides non-interactive, non-custodial mixing. Sigma Protocols enable zero-knowledge proofs in smart contracts. Stealth addresses hide recipients. The key difference: Ergo's privacy is programmable - you choose when and how much to reveal.

Can Ergo transactions be traced?

By default, Ergo transactions are public like Bitcoin. However, Ergo provides privacy tools: ErgoMixer for transaction mixing, Sigma Protocols for zero-knowledge proofs, and stealth addresses. Privacy is optional but powerful - you can prove things about data without revealing the data itself.

What is ErgoMixer and how does it work?

ErgoMixer is a non-custodial, trustless mixing service that breaks the link between your input and output addresses. It uses Sigma Protocols to prove you're entitled to withdraw without revealing which deposit was yours. Unlike centralized mixers, there's no trusted party who could steal funds or keep logs.
