Cycles Pay is now officially running on Arc mainnet. This is the first application built on top of the Cycles protocol, a privacy-preserving clearing algorithm that finds loops of mutual debt and settles them without altering what each party is owed on net. Try it today at We already have a web app and a mobile app, and we’ve already added support for both businesses and individuals. Perhaps more importantly, it has a combination of features no one else in the industry has built yet: private stablecoin payments, earn vaults, invoicing, expense splitting and AI assistants. And we’re working on adding invoice financing, credit scores, balance lending, and rotating savings groups with the ultimate goal of becoming the first on-chain credit bureau to deliver credit scores based on real payment history and active payment obligations. Arc is the foundation. We chose it because it is designed for payments with USDC as gas, sub-second finality, and reliable global infrastructure.

"You're BlackRock and you send JP Morgan money from one bank account to another. Would you want everybody to be able to see that?" "A lot of these chains, seeing the success of Canton and others, realize that institutions are not going to participate in crypto unless privacy is a given. Privacy, or we could even call it confidentiality in this case, like developing confidential transfers" "The problem with public blockchains is that you may not know it's my bank account and your bank account, but everybody can see where some money was sent, and with any decent onchain analysis, probably tie that to you. Institutions can't do that. The largest institutions on the planet need to know their transactions are completely confidential" "Ethereum Foundation researchers are launching an institutional grade privacy system called ETH Systems. They're developing confidential transfers, private bond issuance, privacy preserving identity, and confidential settlement systems designed specifically for institutional users"

Private transactions between wallets now possible on Solana using ZERAs Private Cash Addresses. A closer look at last week’s MVP drop: Private P2P. Most "privacy" on Solana still falls back to withdraw-to-address (recipient + metadata leaks) or multi-step send flows that leave trails. Our P2P is different: one atomic in-pool transaction, the sender’s note is nullified, and two new encrypted notes are created, all inside the vault. No stepping out. No re-deposit choreography. Why it’s so hard to deanonymize: ✅ Your Private Cash Address has zero link to your Solana wallet: it’s an X25519 keypair derived from a wallet signature, and the public key becomes your private address. ✅ Notes are encrypted with NaCl box using a fresh ephemeral key every send, meaning even two payments to the same person looks unrelated. ✅ Recipients discover incoming notes via trial decryption, the chain never learns "who owns what." While we have immense respect for those building privacy on Solana, we are proud to be the first to achieve one-shot, in-pool P2P with full privacy. To our knowledge, this remains an industry first. This is the difference between hiding balances inside a pool and moving value privately between people. Note: Right now, the sender’s wallet still signs the private transaction, so on-chain you can see that a wallet performed a P2P action, but the amount and recipient remain private. The upcoming P2P Relayer removes that footprint too, completing the "cash-style" flow with no on-chain sender trace. What’s coming next: ✅ More assets: At least SOL + ZERA alongside USDC. ✅ P2P Relayer: A decentralized signing/relaying network that can submit transactions for you — enabling withdrawals with minimal linkage after the initial deposit, and removing the sender’s on-chain P2P footprint. Try it out in the ZERA Dashboard below ⤵️

Bitcoin is money AND digital gold. The two are not mutually exclusive. For Michael Saylor - it's the purest form of digital credit. For David Marcus - it's the payment rails of the future. "No one cares what humans think about how people need to Bitcoin because it's an unopinionated, code-based money platform." The Lightspark founder is forging ahead with building Bitcoin-based payment rails, while Saylor and Strategy are doubling down on Bitcoin-backed financial products. "I'm really grateful that Michael is really focused on the store of value use case, and he can do that, and I can be the one focused on bringing utility to Bitcoin. Both things will actually help one another to make Bitcoin more relevant to many more people and that's the beauty of building on an open network," Marcus told Robert Baggs and me on our latest Chain Reaction show. Marcus has been keenly focused on abstracting complexity away from payments using Bitcoin payments infrastructure with the launch of Lightspark Grid. "It's like Bitcoin as a network being used to move all kinds of other money, whether it's stablecoin or fiat at the edges, and you don't even understand that you're using Bitcoin. For instance, if you're a SoFi client in the US, and you want to send money to Europe or India, Brazil or Mexico, you send dollars and the other person on the other side receives Mexican peso, you have no clue you're using Bitcoin. And it's like magical TCP/IP for money between payment systems in the world." Bitcoin infrastructure works. Like most widely adopted technologies, the average person has no idea what's going on under the hood. That is the future that takes Bitcoin global. And it's being built in real-time.

Introducing Chainlink Fulcrum: the gateway connecting the world’s largest financial institutions to onchain financing. As tokenized assets and financing venues expand across public and private blockchains, institutions need to mobilize collateral and access liquidity without building bespoke infrastructure for every market. Chainlink Fulcrum solves this with an end-to-end solution that separates where financing agreements are managed from where cash & collateral settle. Counterparties define the eligible assets, financing terms, and the settlement networks through which the assets move. For institutions, this unlocks: • Faster collateral mobilization that enables intraday financing, including on holidays and weekends. • 24/7 risk management through automated collateral coverage checks throughout the day, extending beyond end-of-day processes. • Greater capital efficiency by making assets across networks available for financing, helping institutions free up balance sheet capacity. • Lower operational complexity through reusable workflows that connect existing systems across public and private blockchains. The solution combines multiple aspects of the Chainlink platform, including the Chainlink Runtime Environment (orchestrates transaction lifecycle), CCIP (cross-chain data and asset transfers), and Data Streams (collateral valuation data). Chainlink Fulcrum is designed to serve all market participants, including banks, dealers, prime brokers, agent lenders, custodians, hedge funds, pension funds, insurers, sovereign wealth funds, money market funds, asset managers, tokenized fund and stablecoin issuers, and corporate treasuries. Each can lend, borrow, or mobilize collateral on terms that fit its mandate and risk parameters. Fulcrum is in the process of being integrated with leading TradFi environments, providing a single platform where participants can compare financing terms and route transactions to the venue of their choice, where the agreement is executed and governed. This is a foundational step toward global financing markets, where an asset’s utility extends beyond the network on which it was issued. 🧵↓

📣 Community Update: Cyborgs! We’ve just reached a major milestone that signals a clear shift in what Arcane and Spectre are becoming, and where this project is heading. Arcane is no longer just a wallet. It’s evolving into the foundation for on-chain privacy. With the Arcane wallet extension now complete, alongside a working privacy dApp interacting directly through the SDK, we’re seeing the first fully connected version of this system come to life. 📌 The wallet extension introduces a real user interface across desktop, complementing mobile, and bringing Arcane into everyday use rather than remaining purely backend infrastructure. Public release by the end of Q2. 📌 Arcane now supports both public and private transactions seamlessly, with Invisible Routing automatically detecting the transaction type so the user doesn’t need to think about it. 📌 The integration between the wallet and the dApp via the SDK creates a complete flow from wallet > action > private execution. This is live, functional privacy in action, not just theory. 📌 The Arcane SDK is a major unlock. It allows any dApp on EVM compatible chains to integrate our privacy stack, positioning Arcane as infrastructure rather than a single product. 📌 Our relayer network will power all private transactions, not only within the Arcane wallet, but across every third party application that integrates the SDK. 📌 As more integrations come online, this drives increased volume through the ecosystem, expanding the revenue streams flowing back to holders. What we’re seeing now is the early formation of a connected ecosystem, where wallet, SDK, dApps, and relayers all work together as one unified privacy layer. This marks the transition from isolated development into something functional and expandable. The rails are being laid. The system is coming online. And what we’re building here doesn’t just participate in the future of crypto, it helps define it ♾️🚀

Crypto is a global movement to shift ownership from authorities to individuals. We’re working with the city of Buenos Aires and Extrimian to build @Quark_ID, an open source protocol, to issue decentralized identifiers (#DIDs) for millions of Argentinian citizens to reclaim their digital rights. Digital identity on the internet is weak. It can be harvested, stolen, and impersonated. We need new ways to maintain privacy in an increasingly digital world. @Quark_ID, Argentina’s new blockchain-based identification initiative, will let citizens claim ownership over their documents, health data, and in the future, manage payment processing. Using the power of 🪄 ZK Magic 🪄 citizens verify their identity without revealing the underlying PII. With zkSync Era as the settlement layer for QuarkID, participating citizens will have full custody of their credentials and strict privacy. Starting in Buenos Aires (population: 15M) with DID, QuarkID will soon expand to new use cases in supply chain, banking, and commerce all across Argentina (population: 45M). In crypto, we talk about “wen real world use cases.” Well. This is it. An urban city government is using an open source digital identity protocol built on a ZK-rollup to help 15 million citizens claim and custody their digital identities. Libertad, Progreso y Prosperidad para todos ∎

(long post on going from pre-product to post-product as a founder) We're swiftly approaching launch, so I thought I'd take some time to reflect. The accompanying video is of the first graphical implementation of Onflow (on Android) for a demo we did at Devcon. Barebones (a bit rough around the edges compared to today's visuals) from exactly a year ago. Onflow might prove to be the most complex protocol engineered thus far within the ZK/MPC/privacy space. ~2 years of work, 13 employees, expertise, refining, rebuilding, consulting, re-writing, auditing, novel research in MPC and ZK constructions. What goes into what we're building? First I'll outline what the scope for the initial release of Onflow is (skip to next section if this isn't interesting to you): - Be an SDK, not a standalone monolith. While we do have Onflow ID (our Onflow implementation), we never want Onflow to be centralized around 1 app. This also makes our user-by-default system so much more stronger in garnering network effects. If you've used Onflow even once, as soon as you open another app a few months later that requires compliance, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find that the magic of the protocol has auto-submitted exactly what the service provider is looking for and there is no-to-little user interaction required on your end. - Privacy, privacy, privacy. My background, and a 90% of the development team at Sundial has a solid background in complex privacy schemes, zero-knowledge, academia and practical implementations. We believe compliance/KYC breaches are some of the most dangerous (both physically and virtually) data leaks that can occur, and so Onflow was built to be virtually impossible to leak any meaningful data from, even if you're delegating work to overseas staff, due to how data is stealth-schematized so support agents only see *exactly* what they need to solve your case, and nothing else. - Privacy, again. So what does privacy entail? Well. For Onflow we're utilizing so many new primitives in one, that all come from different departments. From the zero-trust infrastructure for our compliance dashboard, our never-before-seen quantum-resistant QuantMQ data dispatch protocol that is pervasive throughout the entire Onflow ecosystem, to complex routers for oracling and verifying proofs onchain (EVM and SVM initially, as recently announced). We also have our TDE, or "Trusted Data Enclave", which allows you to easily port your credentials to a new device, whether it be your laptop, or another phone, it'll all get transferred over seamlessly through a bespoke mesh-based distribution system (think Signal-type), again through QuantMQ tunnels. Now the true beauty of all of this? Some of the most senior software engineers, protocol engineers, system administrators, applied (& research) cryptographers alongside amazing visual artists, and our incredible CPO (ex-Disney, Apple, AOL and many more) all worked on their individual bits of the protocol. All with a shared love, and deep respect for privacy and great UX, came together to build the behemoth that is the inner workings of Onflow and distill it down to an SDK that takes just a dozen lines to implement, whether in an app, on a website, or in a cryptocurrency setting. One simple SDK that encapsulates hundreds of bespoke, novel and battle-tested MPC, ZK, QP protocols, and productized it into something that will make onboarding and compliance in general a one-click action going forward (for the most part), and will only be more and more normalized as more and more apps adopt this. Who is interested in using Onflow? We're very fortunate to have an exceptional product, which traditional finance, fintech and digital assets immediately recognize the importance of. Therefore, we're proud to announce that alongside our joint announcement with our day-1 deployment to Circle's Arc network, we're also entering traditional finance. Soon, users will be able to create bank accounts for short-stay overseas work solely using Onflow. We're actually surprised at the extremely positive reception from traditional finance, as you can quickly convince yourself words like "zero-knowledge" will scare what's often seen as arcane institutions, but our experience has been the polar opposite. Banks understand the importance of privacy. Banks understands utilizing privacy-enhancing tools to make the onboarding UX more convenient, and save them money and risk assessment staff when it comes to compliance. What's coming up? More privacy, more convenience. Soon you'll be introduced to the full product offerings of our initial release of Onflow. We plan to open-source every part of the stack that we're able to and provides a benefit to proliferating privacy online (such as our QuantumMQ library with bindings for C++, Rust, C#, Swift and Typescript).

Privacy is not reliant on financial turmoil, it is the first question a start-up should ask itself when making a new product class. And we're super fortunate to say that in the difficulties of navigating novel privacy, we've found extremely satisfying solutions to extremely complex problems we otherwise never would've discovered. Do not fade privacy. Privacy is a moat, and there are so many markets that are begging to be disrupted if someone with a privacy-oriented view decided to take a pragmatic look at them. Thank you.

(long post on going from pre-product to post-product as a founder) We're swiftly approaching launch, so I thought I'd take some time to reflect. The accompanying video is of the first graphical implementation of Onflow (on Android) for a demo we did at Devcon. Barebones (a bit rough around the edges compared to today's visuals) from exactly a year ago. Onflow might prove to be the most complex protocol engineered thus far within the ZK/MPC/privacy space. ~2 years of work, 13 employees, expertise, refining, rebuilding, consulting, re-writing, auditing, novel research in MPC and ZK constructions. What goes into what we're building? First I'll outline what the scope for the initial release of Onflow is (skip to next section if this isn't interesting to you): - Be an SDK, not a standalone monolith. While we do have Onflow ID (our Onflow implementation), we never want Onflow to be centralized around 1 app. This also makes our user-by-default system so much more stronger in garnering network effects. If you've used Onflow even once, as soon as you open another app a few months later that requires compliance, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find that the magic of the protocol has auto-submitted exactly what the service provider is looking for and there is no-to-little user interaction required on your end. - Privacy, privacy, privacy. My background, and a 90% of the development team at Sundial has a solid background in complex privacy schemes, zero-knowledge, academia and practical implementations. We believe compliance/KYC breaches are some of the most dangerous (both physically and virtually) data leaks that can occur, and so Onflow was built to be virtually impossible to leak any meaningful data from, even if you're delegating work to overseas staff, due to how data is stealth-schematized so support agents only see *exactly* what they need to solve your case, and nothing else. - Privacy, again. So what does privacy entail? Well. For Onflow we're utilizing so many new primitives in one, that all come from different departments. From the zero-trust infrastructure for our compliance dashboard, our never-before-seen quantum-resistant QuantMQ data dispatch protocol that is pervasive throughout the entire Onflow ecosystem, to complex routers for oracling and verifying proofs onchain (EVM and SVM initially, as recently announced). We also have our TDE, or "Trusted Data Enclave", which allows you to easily port your credentials to a new device, whether it be your laptop, or another phone, it'll all get transferred over seamlessly through a bespoke mesh-based distribution system (think Signal-type), again through QuantMQ tunnels. Now the true beauty of all of this? Some of the most senior software engineers, protocol engineers, system administrators, applied (& research) cryptographers alongside amazing visual artists, and our incredible CPO (ex-Disney, Apple, AOL and many more) all worked on their individual bits of the protocol. All with a shared love, and deep respect for privacy and great UX, came together to build the behemoth that is the inner workings of Onflow and distill it down to an SDK that takes just a dozen lines to implement, whether in an app, on a website, or in a cryptocurrency setting. One simple SDK that encapsulates hundreds of bespoke, novel and battle-tested MPC, ZK, QP protocols, and productized it into something that will make onboarding and compliance in general a one-click action going forward (for the most part), and will only be more and more normalized as more and more apps adopt this. Who is interested in using Onflow? We're very fortunate to have an exceptional product, which traditional finance, fintech and digital assets immediately recognize the importance of. Therefore, we're proud to announce that alongside our joint announcement with our day-1 deployment to Circle's Arc network, we're also entering traditional finance. Soon, users will be able to create bank accounts for short-stay overseas work solely using Onflow. We're actually surprised at the extremely positive reception from traditional finance, as you can quickly convince yourself words like "zero-knowledge" will scare what's often seen as arcane institutions, but our experience has been the polar opposite. Banks understand the importance of privacy.

On the latest Bitcoin News Weekly, Giacomo Loathsome Bitcoin Destroyer Zucco laid out the Bitcoin tech projects he is most excited for in 2026. Beyond payments, his vision is to fix the fundamental infrastructure of the internet and financial self-sovereignty. Here is a breakdown of the key tech projects Zucco is most excited about: 1. Fixing Internet Communication & Social Media Zucco is bullish on protocols that aim to decentralize the very fabric of how we interact online, moving away from centralized silos. Holepunch: A platform for building peer-to-peer applications without servers. Nostr: A decentralized protocol for social media and data vending that removes the power of central moderators. Keet: A peer-to-peer communication tool built on Holepunch that focuses on privacy and direct user interaction. 2. Scalable, Sovereign Identity Rather than government-mandated digital IDs, Zucco advocates for "pseudonymous identity" where users control their own keys. Economic Incentive: He notes that because Bitcoin users must learn to manage keys to protect their money, they are finally prepared for the "web of trust" models that failed in the past. 3. The "New" Lightning Network Zucco acknowledges that the current Lightning Network has "overpromised" by relying on semi-centralized nodes. He is excited about a multi-layered approach that abstracts complexity away from the user: Ark: This protocol is a major highlight for Zucco because it "batches across users" rather than just time. This allows thousands of users to achieve finality in a single on-chain transaction. Complementary Layers: He sees a "symphony" of layers, including Spark, Mercury Layer, Liquid, and Cashu, working together to make Bitcoin as easy to use as a credit card. 4. Decentralizing Bitcoin Mining To prevent censorship and "KYC mining," Zucco supports tools that return power to individual miners: OCEAN & DATUM: Projects that allow miners to create their own block templates rather than letting pools decide which transactions to include. Stratum V2: An upgraded protocol designed to increase security and efficiency in pool communication. Lightning/Ark Payouts: He is excited about mining pools using Lightning or Ark for non-custodial, high-frequency payouts to miners. 5. Smart Contracts & Assets (RGB) Zuccoo, who originally invented the RGB protocol in 2018, is excited to see its "renaissance" alongside Taproot Assets. Client-Side Validation: RGB allows for smart contracts and tokens (like Tether) to exist on Bitcoin without bloating the blockchain or requiring new tokens to function. Reduction of Harm: He believes that if people insist on using stablecoins or tokens, doing so on RGB strengthens Bitcoin's privacy and liquidity rather than damaging it.

🌟Quilibrium’s AI Breakthrough: Encrypted Training on CPUs In her latest live stream ( - minute 14) Cassie unveiled a groundbreaking AI training method that allows models to be trained on encrypted data using CPUs while achieving performance comparable to Nvidia’s A100 GPU (blue line in the graph below). Traditionally, AI training requires expensive GPUs because matrix multiplications—the core of deep learning—are highly computational. Running these calculations on CPUs is painfully slow, often taking hours or days for even small models. The problem worsens when trying to train AI on encrypted data, as standard encryption methods add a massive computational burden. Quilibrium’s breakthrough removes this bottleneck. Instead of relying on traditional matrix multiplication, their method uses a completely different mathematical approach, allowing AI models to be trained securely and efficiently without exposing the raw data. Cassie didn’t reveal the exact technique, only hinting that it’s inspired by existing AI research and will be detailed in a future open-source AGPL-licensed paper. The key advantage? AI can now be trained at GPU speeds on standard CPUs, making privacy-preserving machine learning far more accessible. This innovation has major implications. It slashes AI infrastructure costs, allowing organizations to train powerful models without investing in expensive hardware. It also enables private AI training on personal or corporate data without revealing sensitive information, a game-changer for industries like healthcare and finance. If Quilibrium’s method delivers on its promise, it could reshape AI development, making privacy-first computing the new standard. $QUIL $wQUIL

Ep. 10 Free The Money | As Cash Disappears: Why Monero Succeeds Where Bitcoin Fails In this episode I’m joined by Douglas Tuman, founder of MoneroTopia and host of Monero Talk Live, to explore why Monero is not only the ultimate privacy coin, but a foundational tool for freedom in the digital age. Doug explains how Monero was built to fix Bitcoin’s core flaws. Bitcoin’s public ledger allows for the tracking of transactions and balances, while Monero encrypts the sender, receiver, and amount by default. Monero’s privacy makes Monero fully fungible, meaning every coin is identical, untraceable, and cannot be tainted or blacklisted, something Bitcoin can never achieve. Doug breaks down why Monero is more decentralized at the mining level, using ASIC-resistant proof-of-work that allows everyday CPUs to secure the network, preventing control by large industrial mining operations and state pressure unlike Bitcoin. This makes Monero harder to censor and more resilient long-term. This episode tackles the controversial topic head-on: Monero’s use on dark markets. Rather than being a weakness, it’s evidence that Monero is the most private and effective digital cash available, just as cash and encryption have always been neutral tools used by both good and bad actors. At a deeper level, this conversation is about freedom. Cash is being eliminated. Privacy is necessary to prevent governments from wielding excessive power over individuals.

Huma Turns 4 today. Huma was founded on April 20, 2022 with a clear mission — to accelerate the movement of money for a world that is always on. This is the story behind that mission. The inspiration came from our founders’ experience building EarnIn, a leading payment financing app. EarnIn helped tens of millions of Americans access their wages in real time instead of waiting for weeks, avoiding end of month cash flow challenges that often led to debt spirals. It wasn't easy. Even after scaling EarnIn to more than $10B in cashouts with less than 1% loss rates, it was difficult to find lenders willing to finance payment gaps for a few days. Retrofitting AI-driven real-time solutions on top of existing banking infrastructure revealed a stark truth. The future of finance could not be built on legacy rails. So, they left EarnIn to build a new payment financing layer at global scale. The first prototype won the DeFi track at EthDenver. Shortly after, Huma was founded. Huma 1.0 launched in 2023 with a handful of LPs and early partners believing in our mission, building alongside us. Each partner validated a different real world use case: - Arf focused on cross-border payments - Rain focused on card settlement - Jia focused on trade finance In early 2024, Huma crossed $1B in transaction volume. It became clear that Arf's regulated infrastructure is critical to onboard larger global payment companies. The two teams merged, combining onchain infrastructure with regulated financial rails. Since then, the network has grown 10x. Solana Foundation was first to recognize PayFi’s potential and offered a partnership to build the category. Huma went all in, rebuilding its stack on Solana, believing global liquidity solutions belong to the fastest growing ecosystem with the highest TPS. Huma 2.0 and PST (PayFi Strategy Token) launched in April 2025, followed by the HUMA token in May with full ecosystem alignment. Partnerships with Jupiter and Kamino helped scale PST, letting everyone on Solana access yield from real world payment flows. Our leadership in the ecosystem was recognized by an invitation to the Genius Act signing ceremony at the White House. Huma now leads the PayFi category with measurable scale: - $12B total transaction volume - $160M active liquidity - 100K+ depositors - PST has become a core onchain yield primitive All of this is to say, thank you. To the teams at Huma and Arf, our investors, and every partner who backed PayFi before it had a name, thank you. To our community, none of this happens without you. As the first PayFi network, we have come a long way in advancing our mission to accelerate the movement of money for a world that is always on. There is still much more to build.

For the Sui Overflow 2026 hackathon, I built Talise. A gasless dollar account that sends money by name, settles in under a second, and keeps the amount private on-chain. This is what "money that moves like a message" actually looks like when you build it on the right rails. The core experience is simple by design. Sign in with Google/Apple, get a self-custodial wallet via zkLogin, claim your handle like sele@talise, and start sending. No seed phrase. No gas token. No 0x address to copy and verify. The complexity lives in the infrastructure. The user never sees it. [Kostas Kryptos] Sending is just a name. Type a handle, enter an amount, confirm. It arrives in under a second. Stablecoin transactions on Sui cost nothing, so what you type is exactly what arrives. No spread taken on the send. No fee waiting at the destination. Talise also has a built in privacy feature. The amount is hidden on-chain and the connection between sender and recipient is completely broken. Nobody watching the chain can see what moved or who it moved between. Real privacy, live on Sui mainnet today, not a line on a roadmap. Beyond the core send: claim links let you wrap dollars in a URL and drop it in any chat, no address needed to receive. Payment streaming lets you send a salary or a subscription by the second. Idle balances route automatically to on-chain lending so your dollars are never dead weight between payments. And cash-out to your local bank is live now in Nigeria, with more corridors coming. Every transaction is sponsored through a gas station so users never hold or spend a gas token. zkLogin, sponsored transactions, sub-second finality, and programmable transaction blocks are what made this possible. Sui is the only chain where this experience exists without compromise. Over 1,400 handles claimed on-chain. Every feature shipped and working in the live build. Testflight app: Talise. Money that moves like a message. Sui Community Official sarah 😾

This is SO cool !! I just used up for voting amendment XLS-96 Confidential Transfer / privacy on the XRP Ledger dev net enabled by homomorphism and ZK proofs. What's going on here and how do nodes know payments are correct while not able to see the amounts ? 1) I issued a confidential MPT on the XRP Ledger dev net. I shielded my balance. Privacy for the amounts of my XRPL issued asset balance and transfers (the addresses stay public). No one can see the amounts, it's all shielded, except the issuer and the auditor who can always decrypt them (or you, like in the video on my esp32). 2) The XRP Ledger uses 2 boxes 📦 for this all under the hood, an Inbox-box and a Spending-box. I don't go into detail why thats needed but it's important we have it. 3) How do Validators and nodes know the transfers are correct if they can't see the amounts? Now the true magic is enabled by homomorphism. It allows to do operations arithmetic on encrypted data as if it were plaintext, without the need to decrypt it. Like adding and subtracting amounts to your balance. ZK proofs fill the gap that nodes need. We need a comparison of the balance that after you have done your payment you have >= 0 balance. If you would have negative balance it means you trying to spend more than you have something we need to prevent. For this a ZK proof is used to quickly allow people to check, ahh all good, no idea how much Vet owns but whatever he is spending here it's definitely within his balance and it's not below 0. Those 2 techniques soon on a public decentralized blockchain XRP Ledger. Should give you goose bumps what this means for possible use cases.
