Cryptographic mixing

Cryptographic mixing, or "mixing," is a process used in digital privacy to obscure the origin and destination of messages or transactions. It works by combining multiple inputs, such as cryptocurrency transactions, and then reordering or shuffling them so that it's difficult to trace who sent or received what. Essentially, it acts like a digital jumble, enhancing anonymity by making it challenging for outsiders to link specific inputs to outputs, thus protecting user privacy in digital communications and financial exchanges.
