// EXECUTIVE_SUMMARY

Two Identities. One App.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

"Privacy Should Not Be A Feature Request"

X-RAY is a revolutionary dual-mode social platform built on the Solana blockchain that bridges public and private social interaction. It enables users to maintain both a public identity (with visible wallet information) and anonymous shadow identities within a single application.

Public Mode

Traditional transparent social feed with visible wallet identities

Shadow Mode

Anonymous posting powered by Privacy Cash for untraceable on-chain transactions

Key Technologies

Solana

Fast, low-cost transactions

Privacy Cash

Privacy Cash

ZK mixer for untraceable on-chain posts

Arcium

End-to-end encryption for DMs

Shadow Wallets

Unlimited anonymous identities

Zero-Knowledge Principle

There is no database linking identities. Shadow wallets are derived client-side, and the relationship exists only in the user's browser. This is true zero-knowledge architecture.

// THE_PROBLEM

The Privacy Paradox

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Full Transparency

Exposes users to harassment, doxxing, and retaliation

Full Anonymity

Enables abuse, spam, and Sybil attacks

Traditional platforms have chosen transparency, leaving users vulnerable:

  • Self-censorship: Users filter opinions to protect careers and relationships
  • Echo chambers: Fear of backlash concentrates discourse in "safe" communities
  • Power asymmetry: Whistleblowers and activists face disproportionate risk

The Blockchain Paradox

Web3 promised decentralization but delivered:

Permanent Pseudonymity

Wallet addresses create traceable on-chain histories

Financial Surveillance

Every transaction is publicly visible forever

Identity Linkage

KYC requirements connect wallets to real identities

"Free speech without anonymity just means self-censor."
// THE_SOLUTION

Dual-Mode Architecture

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

PUBLIC MODE

  • • Wallet visible
  • • Likes, comments
  • • Followers/following
  • • Traditional UX
  • • Profile customization

SHADOW MODE

  • • Identity anonymous
  • • Boost-based ranking
  • • Untraceable via Privacy Cash
  • • Anonymous on-chain posting
  • • Premium shadow names (.anon)

Core Innovation: Shadow Wallets

Every user can generate unlimited shadow wallets using deterministic derivation:

pseudocode
seed = SHA256(signature + hashedUserId + walletIndex)
shadowKeypair = Keypair.fromSeed(seed)

One-way derivation

Impossible to trace shadow wallet → public wallet

Client-side generation

No backend required

Infinite wallets

Generate as many identities as needed

Messages are stored on-chain, not in a database. Only the recipient can decrypt.

Zero-Knowledge Architecture

Traditional Approach

Database: wallet_links

public_walletshadow_wallet
7xK9...2mN3aB7...9pQ
7xK9...2mN8cD2...4rS
Database leak = all identities exposed

X-RAY Approach

Database: EMPTY

Shadow wallets derived CLIENT-SIDE:

seed = SHA256(signature + hash(userId) + index)

No server stores the relationship.

ZERO KNOWLEDGE: No data to leak

The Boost System

Posts are ranked competitively by SOL amount. The more you boost, the higher you rank.

How it works:

1.User A posts with 0.5 SOL#1
2.User B posts with 1.0 SOL#1
User A drops to#2
3.User C posts with 0.8 SOL#2
User A drops to#3

Competitive ranking: Your position depends on how much others have boosted on the same target. Higher boost = higher visibility on the target's profile.

Private Messages (Arcium)

End-to-end encrypted direct messages stored on-chain.

True E2E encryption

Shadow Names System

Every shadow wallet comes with an identity. Choose between free auto-generated names or premium collectible domains.

1

Default: Auto-generated Name

When you create a shadow wallet, you automatically get a unique random name. No action required.

Example: anon_7x8k2m
  • • Free and instant
  • • Unique per shadow wallet
  • • Anonymous by default
2

Optional: Premium .anon Domain

Want a memorable identity? Purchase a premium .anon domain to stand out in the shadow feed.

Example: whale.anon
  • • Build reputation anonymously

Available premium domains:

defi.anonalpha.anonwhale.anoninsider.anon

Smart Contract (Anchor/Rust)

Program ID: 6Suaf5mvzmogRtVXdckv7Ace8615Fnbu4rNBcnXprAj5

rust
#[account]
pub struct Post {
    pub author: Pubkey,      // Shadow wallet (untraceable)
    pub target: String,      // Target profile URL
    pub content: String,     // Post content
    pub bid: u64,            // Boost amount in lamports
    pub timestamp: i64,      // Unix timestamp
    pub bump: u8,            // PDA bump
}

PDA Derivation

rust
seeds = [b"post", author.key(), target.as_bytes()]

Shadow Wallet Derivation

typescript
import { Keypair } from "@solana/web3.js";
import { createHash } from "crypto";

function sha256(data: string): Buffer {
  return createHash("sha256").update(data).digest();
}

function deriveSeed(signature: string, hashedUserId: string, walletIndex: number): Uint8Array {
  const derived = sha256(signature + ":" + hashedUserId + ":" + walletIndex);
  return new Uint8Array(derived);
}

function generateShadowWallet(signature: string, hashedUserId: string, walletIndex: number): Keypair {
  const derivedSeed = deriveSeed(signature, hashedUserId, walletIndex);
  return Keypair.fromSeed(derivedSeed);
}

Deterministic: Same inputs → same wallet

One-way: Cannot reverse to find signature

Unique: Each index produces different wallet

Privacy Cash Integration

typescript
// 1. Fund shadow wallet anonymously via ZK mixer
await privacyCash.deposit(amount, publicWallet);
await privacyCash.withdraw(shadowWallet.publicKey);

// 2. Create anonymous post on-chain
await program.methods
  .createPost(target, content, boostAmount)
  .accounts({
    author: shadowWallet.publicKey,  // Untraceable
    post: postPDA,
    systemProgram: SystemProgram.programId,
  })
  .signers([shadowWallet])
  .rpc();

Layer 1: Zero-Knowledge Database

  • • No wallet links stored in any database
  • • Shadow wallets derived entirely client-side
  • • Even if servers are compromised, no identity data exists

Layer 2: Privacy Cash

  • • ZK mixer breaks on-chain funding trail
  • • No connection between public and shadow wallet
  • • Posts are truly anonymous

// CONCLUSION

Summary

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

X-RAY is built on three fundamental principles:

1. Zero-Knowledge Architecture

We never store which shadow wallet belongs to which public wallet. The link exists only in the user's browser.

2. Privacy Cash for Anonymous Posting

Users fund shadow wallets through a ZK mixer, enabling truly untraceable on-chain posts.

3. Arcium for Encrypted Messages

Private DMs are stored on-chain but encrypted end-to-end. Only the recipient can read them.
