What Is the Role of a ‘Stealth Address’ in Conjunction with Ring Signatures?

Stealth Addresses are one-time public addresses generated for every transaction to protect the recipient's privacy. They ensure that the recipient's main wallet address never appears on the public ledger.

When combined with Ring Signatures, which hide the sender, the entire transaction is obscured. This prevents linking multiple transactions to a single recipient address, enhancing untraceability.
