The case for private stablecoins has never been stronger. Today, we're thrilled to release a landmark white paper that explains how privacy is the missing layer that makes blockchain payment rails viable for mainstream institutional use. The GENIUS Act presents the opportunity for widespread stablecoin adoption. But public blockchains expose every transaction, permanently, hindering adoption. Payroll. Treasury. Vendor payments. All of it broadcast to the world. Existing solutions fall short and carry too much risk for institutions to engage. The industry has been stuck. But today that changes. This paper presents a new path forward: permissionless, private stablecoin architecture built on Aleo, using zero-knowledge technology and programmable smart contracts. Financial privacy and institutional risk management are not in tension. They're built from the same foundation, with programmable risk mitigation that lets institutions transact privately without compromise. Behind this paper is a team that has spent careers at the intersection of cryptography, policy, and financial systems. Aleo's Global Head of Policy @SignCurve, Valerie-Leila Jaber of the @crypto_council for Innovation and former Global Head of Financial Crime Compliance at Coinbase, and @matthew_d_green, cryptographer and Johns Hopkins University computer science professor, bring a rare combination of hands-on experience in private payments, financial regulation, and zero-knowledge cryptography. This is a big deal. Not just for Aleo, but for institutional finance as a whole. Read More 👇 aleo.org/post/stablecoin-pri…

Last week we released a landmark white paper making the case for privacy as the missing layer in onchain institutional finance. Co-authored by @SignCurve, Valerie-Leila Jaber, and @matthew_d_green, it presents a new path forward for private stablecoin infrastructure. Learn More 👇

Americans want action on digital asset policy New poll from DCG and @HarrisPoll found that 81% support legislation creating a clear regulatory framework for digital assets and 60% want Congress to act now even if the rules evolve over time Full report available: theblockchainassociation.org…

The demand for financial privacy is clear. 2-in-3 Americans want the right to transact without their financial data being permanently recorded. Private stablecoins will play a critical role in making this a reality. Dive deeper into the data 👇

We're excited to be in Washington, D.C. this week for the 2026 DCG Fly-In ✈️ As policymakers shape the future of digital asset regulation, we're ensuring private stablecoins are a central part of the conversation 💬

Most blockchains are transparent by default, so every salary, balance, and trading strategy you put onchain is permanently public. @AleoHQ is a Layer 1 that flips that, making privacy the foundation and enforcing it with math instead of trust.

Private onchain infrastructure just got stronger 🛡 @BlockdaemonHQ has implemented support for Aleo's signature requirements across Builder Vault and its SDKs, enabling stablecoin issuers to support private payments and other use cases on Aleo. Builder Vault is a self-hosted MPC key management system that gives institutions direct control over their key infrastructure. Learn more about what this means for builders 👇

The Oslo Freedom Forum is wrapping up today. It's been a powerful few days with conversations around privacy, onchain finance, and what this means for humanitarian coordination around the world. The work being done at @OsloFF is a reminder of why this infrastructure matters.

We're attending Stablecoin 2.0 at @money2020, hosted by @utila_io, @raincards, and @yellowcard_app. Looking forward to conversations around the intersection of stablecoins and privacy 💬

A first on Aleo mainnet 🛡 Aleo and @LabrysT recently demonstrated the first Confidential Sponsor private payments architecture at the @BoozAllen × @a16z event in Washington DC. Confidential Sponsor is a new private payments feature within Axiom, Labrys' mobile operations platform for defence, logistics, and humanitarian teams. Most payment architectures expose who sent, who received, and who paid fees. For the types of teams using Axiom, that exposure can quickly become an operational risk. Built on Aleo's privacy-preserving Layer-1, Confidential Sponsor ensures that all sensitive financial information stays private. Denying adversarial observers the intelligence that public chains hand them by default. Financial privacy for those that need it most. Learn more 👇 aleo.org/post/labrys-aleo/
