About GhostLayer
What we are, how we work, and what you get

GhostLayer publishes detailed, actionable operational security guides for privacy-conscious individuals. Every guide is written with precision — no padding, no filler, no advice that was current in 2018.

We cover the full spectrum: from someone who just wants to browse without being tracked, all the way to elite techniques for people with serious threat models. Each guide is graded Beginner, Advanced, or Elite so you know exactly what you're buying.

We accept Monero (XMR) only. No credit cards, no PayPal, no accounts. You pay, you get your PDF, you leave. That's the entire transaction.


How payment works
1️⃣

Choose your guide

Pick any guide from the shop. Click "Buy" to go to checkout.

2️⃣

Generate order

Click "Generate Payment Request" — you'll get a unique XMR amount and our wallet address.

3️⃣

Send XMR

Send the exact amount shown from any Monero wallet. Keep your Order ID — you'll need it to download.

4️⃣

Download your PDF

Once payment is confirmed (~20 min), enter your transaction ID and download. No account needed.


Why Monero?

Bitcoin transactions are publicly traceable. Monero uses ring signatures, stealth addresses, and RingCT to make every transaction private by default. Sending XMR leaves no on-chain trail linking sender to receiver — which is exactly the point of a privacy-focused shop.

Don't have Monero? Get the official wallet at getmonero.org and buy XMR from any major exchange. Takes about 10 minutes.


What we log

Nothing that identifies you. We store order IDs and XMR amounts in a local database to fulfill downloads. We do not log IP addresses, do not set cookies, and do not use analytics. On the .onion address the server runs as a Tor hidden service, so even the hosting layer has no idea who's visiting. On sedins.com, traffic passes through Cloudflare, which sees visitor IPs — use the .onion for full anonymity.
