Stealth addresses allow and require the sender to create random one-time addresses for every transaction on behalf of the recipient. The recipient can publish just one address, yet have all incoming payments go to unique addresses on the blockchain so that only the sender and receiver can determine where a payment was sent making transactions unlinkable

Using exponentiations instead of ECC multiplication in computing Stealth address
The reason we use ECC multiplication (which I'm sure you know is not just regular integer multiplication) is that it is a homomorphic trapdoor function.
You could potentially use unpadded RSA to achi …

Does the miner transaction (of a block reward) get sent to a miner's stealth address?
The coinbase transaction, which is the type of transaction created through the successful mining of a block, is very similar to a regular transaction. The outputs are generated such that the miner's w …

What's the point of ring signatures if stealth addresses hide the actual addresses anyways?
Stealth addressing provides unlinkability (outputs are not associated with wallet addresses on the blockchain). Ring signatures provide untraceability.
Untraceability means that the source of funds i …

Is a transaction from Exchange to Wallet to Exchange traceable?
Exchange1 would know the output (call it Out1) that it has given to Adr1. When Out1 is spent, Exchange2 (if sharing knowledge through backchannels with Exchange1) will see that there is a 1 in N chanc …

Do stealth address only work with elliptic curve cryptography ?
Monero's stealth addressing works like this:
You start with a destination wallet address, which is a pair of public keys A, B which have corresponding private keys a, b known only to the recipient.

Auditing incoming transactions in Monero
Yes, the view key proves that outputs were destined for a particular wallet address. It cannot be proven whether these outputs were subsequently spent, but it can be guessed that they have been spent …

Detecting the real output in ring signature
The reason we use elliptic curve multiplication is that it is a trapdoor function. This means you can multiply by a point, but you can't divide by a point. Trapdoor functions are an essential componen …

Where is the code that generates stealth addresses and matches them with view keys?
Private spend and view keys for public Monero addresses are generated here: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/blob/102a51bcd48a3cd2cb794aab7dbe243393f155b3/src/cryptonote_basic/account.cpp#L81
