Confidential by design
GRIN is confidential digital cash — every amount is cryptographically hidden. Like handing someone cash, what you send stays between the two of you.
Free & open source
Send grin like a text.
Goblin is a private wallet for GRIN. Pay a username and the payment is delivered as an end-to-end encrypted message over nostr, through Tor. No files to swap. No need to both be online.

How a payment travels
Payments are NIP-44 encrypted; relays only ever see ciphertext — never the amount, sender, or recipient. Privacy is Mimblewimble on-chain + Tor on the wire.

Private by construction
Pay anyone instantly and directly — an addressless, confidential chain underneath.
Pay a username
Handles are NIP-05 identities at goblin.st. Pay
alice — or any raw npub on nostr.
Sealed delivery
The slatepack travels as a NIP-17 gift-wrapped DM (kind 1059) and is applied automatically by the recipient's wallet — no files, no meetups.
Tor, built in
Your payments and identity — nostr messages, names, price and avatars — ride Tor, embedded right into the app. Tor hides your IP from the relay; the relay and encryption hide the rest — content, sender, timing. (The grin node connects directly — public chain data, not tied to you.) Nothing to set up.
Separate from your wallet key
Your nostr payment key is deliberately separate from your funds. Rotate it any time to stay unlinkable — your grin never moves.
Your numbers, your way
Off by default. Opt into a world currency, Bitcoin, or sats and the rate is fetched over Tor — nothing leaves your device otherwise.
Be yourself.
Claim a free handle in the app and friends can pay you by name. Your handle resolves through the open goblin.st identity service — standard NIP-05, one name per key, yours until you release it.
Or remain anonymous and reset your identity whenever you want.
