What are privacy-preserving transfers?

NOVA provides supported Solana transfer routes designed to reduce the direct public link between the source and destination. This is a narrower claim than complete anonymity or “zero trace.” Solana remains a public ledger, and amounts, timing, provider records, network data, or later wallet activity may reveal relationships.

Review flow

  1. Choose a supported privacy-preserving transfer route.
  2. Enter and verify the destination and amount.
  3. Review route availability, fees, provider terms, and any displayed limits.
  4. Authorize the exact wallet request shown by NOVA.
  5. Follow the in-app status until the route reports completion. A prepared request, accepted provider job, broadcast transaction, and finalized transaction are different states.

What may remain observable?

  • Public funding, withdrawal, or destination activity used by the selected route
  • Transaction amounts and timing that can support correlation
  • Wallet activity before or after the private-transfer flow
  • Network and service metadata handled under the applicable provider policies

Fees and availability

Network, route, provider, and service fees can vary. Review the current in-app breakdown before signing; an older percentage in documentation is not a quote. Asset, amount, provider, region, and liquidity limits may also apply. Privacy-preserving transfers do not make a bad destination safe, reverse an incorrect transfer, or protect a compromised recovery phrase. Verify the address and terms, start with a small amount when testing a new route, and comply with applicable laws. Compare current public evidence in the private Solana wallet guide.
