Keep the details private.
In shielded Zcash transfers, sender and recipient addresses, the amount and memo are protected from public view. Transparent transfers do not offer the same privacy.
Shielded vs. transparent ↗A keepsake, on-chain.
A deliberate goodbye.

Explore three original artwork studies.
Artwork studies, not live token collections. Registered editions will appear after contract deployment.
The burn-to-mint ritual
Burning is permanent. The receipt is the part you keep — not a promise of yield or a claim on the tokens.
Choose a registered collection and how many of its tokens to burn. Preview the artwork before you commit.
Review the exact amount and network. Approve only that amount, then confirm the burn in your wallet.
The intended flow mints an ERC-721 receipt to your wallet. Its transaction records the token, amount and moment.
Research notes / the Zcash principle
A public record and a private life do not have to be opposites. Zcash shows how transaction validity can be verified without publishing every detail.
In shielded Zcash transfers, sender and recipient addresses, the amount and memo are protected from public view. Transparent transfers do not offer the same privacy.
Shielded vs. transparent ↗Zero-knowledge proofs let the network check that a shielded transaction follows its rules without exposing the underlying private transaction details.
How zk-SNARKs work ↗Viewing keys can reveal transaction information without granting spending authority. Disclosure depends on the key type and wallet support; a viewing key is still sensitive.
Viewing keys explained ↗This is a design reference, not an active Zcash integration. Ashfolio currently offers artwork previews on a BNB-configured interface. No shielded pool, ZEC bridge or zero-knowledge receipt is implemented. A future BNB burn would remain public unless a separately designed and audited privacy system changes that. Burning tokens does not erase their history.

No. A confirmed burn cannot be reversed. The NFT receipt is a record of the action, not a redeemable balance.
Only tokens in a verified, registered collection will be supported. There are no registered collections in this preview.
No. Ashfolio is an independent project designed for BNB Smart Chain, which uses BNB for gas.
No. A burn does not hide your address or erase the transaction history. The Zcash research notes explain a different privacy mechanism; it is not implemented by this studio.
The artwork studio and network connection. Token approvals, burning and minting are disabled until the contracts are deployed and verified.
