Confidential DeFi at scale, live today. Zama is the fastest growing confidentiality protocol for onchain finance. Today, Zama expands confidential access to 16 curated yield vaults across 5 institutional curators and 5 assets: USDC, USDT, AUSD, WBTC, and tGBP, all deployed on Morpho 🦋. The same trusted curators and strategies that institutional capital already uses, now with confidential entry. Alongside the vaults, the Zama Confidential Swap Protocol goes live. Swap between confidential assets without exposing intent or size. Curated by: Armitage by Wintermute, Bitwise, Flowdesk, RockawayX, Steakhouse Financial Access: Morpho 🦋, Utila, Yield.xyz, Zerion Incentives: Pendle, Merkl With support from: Tether (USDT), BitGo (WBTC), Tokenised GBP (tGBP), Agora (AUSD) Shield, send, deposit, earn, and swap, all confidentially at:

You can now earn yield on Bitcoin, with your balance encrypted onchain, through the Wintermute Confidential WBTC (WBTC) vault. Rand and Igor Igamberdiev from Armitage by Wintermute discuss what this unlocks for BTC in DeFi, and what's next for confidential onchain finance.

Yes, and THIS IS IMPORTANT. Payments. Payroll. RWA. Treasury. Trading desks. Wallets. Any product where public balances are a liability can run on Zama. Under the hood: balances and transfers are encrypted, and it stays fully composable. No separate chain, no trusted intermediary. If you can write a Solidity contract, you can write a confidential one. Confidentiality is becoming core infrastructure for the onchain economy. Build on it: Talk to us:

FHE has been getting ~10× faster per year over the past few years. Some of that comes from better cryptography, but most of the gains now are from hardware acceleration. Moving from CPU → GPU → FPGA → ASIC is basically how you go from ~10 confidential stablecoin transfers per second to ~100,000 confidential stablecoin transfers per second.

RWA tokenization has been "about to happen" for years. Last month, Apex Group committed to $100 billion in tokenized assets on T-REX by June 2027. So what actually changed? We brought together Daniel Coheur (Apex Group), Joachim Lebrun (T-REX Network), Serena Leung (Polygon | POL), and Jonathan Alexander (OpenZeppelin) to find out.

For years, most new protocols have competed for the same things: developers, users, and liquidity. We took the opposite approach. The Zama Protocol was designed to run on top of the chains, apps, and protocols people already use. No migration, no starting from zero, no asking a working market to move somewhere else. kirk from Morpho 🦋 puts it plainly: plug confidentiality into existing infrastructure and there's no bootstrapping step. It's an easy sell.

The Zama Protocol makes onchain confidentiality programmable. Confidential tokens keep balances and transfers encrypted. Builders can integrate these primitives into the existing DeFi stack, and extend them with new privacy features. @Raycashxyz is doing exactly that.

Confidential tokens preserve public verifiability while keeping amounts and balances encrypted. But to make them the new default, we need to rally the entire stack of tools we already use today, wallets, explorers, indexers, and more. It's a big lift, and it's happening now. The work the team at Blockscout 🔭 did is a step in that direction: they're the first block explorer to natively support ERC-7984 confidential tokens, verifiable transfers with encrypted amounts. We recorded a demo with DOSH | 🦇🔊 from the Blockscout team, walking through how it works, and what explorers become when encrypted tokens are the default. This demo shows the work Zama is doing across the board: onboarding the tooling the ecosystem already relies on, so confidentiality onchain becomes the new normal, not the exception.

Confidentiality will continue to unlock new institutional capital onchain. This is just the start. $13 million has already been deposited into the Morpho 🦋 vault accepting confidential USDC (cUSDC) as the deposit asset. Public blockchains expose every position, every trade, every strategy. For institutions managing real capital, that's a non-starter. cUSDC changes the equation. Institutions can now earn yield from leading DeFi credit strategies on Morpho 🦋, curated by Steakhouse Financial, while keeping balances, allocations, and strategy confidential onchain. No exposure to competitors. No exposure to counterparties. No leaving DeFi. Zama is building utility for confidential assets. Yield on Morpho 🦋 is just the first use case. More to come on the Zama Protocol.
