Privacy features are functionalities within blockchain protocols or digital asset applications designed to obscure or protect sensitive transaction details or user identities. These features can include coin mixing, confidential transactions, stealth addresses, or zero-knowledge proofs. Their purpose is to enhance the anonymity and unlinkability of activities on a public ledger. They provide users with greater control over their financial information.
