ZK in Blockchain - Bachelor thesis - Stealth Address Scheme

This Bachelor thesis explores zero knowledge proofs in context of a stealth address scheme on Ethereum.

Stealth addresses enable one to receive transactions without any on-chain link. Additional benefit over the good old generating a new wallet for each transaction, is that senders don't have to wait for recipients to give them a new wallet, rather they derive it themselves with on-chain data from the recipient.

Thanks to zero knowledge proofs, recipient can prove ownership to his stealth address without leaking any linking data.
