If you aren't paying attention to what @zama is doing with COMPOSABLE PRIVACY, you're completely missing the next major macro shift. We are entering an era where you can seamlessly utilize public assets for confidential execution on a public blockchain. The friction is gone: ❌ No separate stealth addresses. ❌ No liquidity-splitting bridges. ❌ No isolated privacy networks. This frictionless distribution is exactly what will onboard the next trillions into Web3. True confidentiality, natively integrated into the public rails we already use. Position accordingly. ethereum:0xa12cc123ba206d4031d1c7f6223d1c2ec249f4f3 🤫

Institutions will bring trillions onchain. The pie is about to get way bigger. But they'll need privacy to do it. That's non-negotiable.

Joe should shield his ETH on @zama next time. Then no one would know how he manages his money! -> portfolio.zama.org
Joseph Lubin just transferred $123.5M worth of ethereum:native. - To save a huge leveraged position. Here's what happened: > Joseph Lubin (Ethereum co-founder) > transferred 80,000 ETH ($123.5M) to two wallets > deposited the ETH into MakerDAO as collateral > currently has ~$209M DAI borrowed against his ETH > the move appears to be aimed at reducing liquidation risk > The wallet had been mostly dormant for over three years before these large transfers reappeared. > whales are in panic mode.

This week we hosted a privacy panel with @sergey_nog (@arc), @randhindi (@zama) and @yrschrade (@Arcium) 3 clips below on what's actually shifting for privacy in crypto 👇 1. A real case for compliant privacy. Last week, Zama's cUSDC contract was temporarily frozen due to a court order in an unrelated case. During the proceedings, the common misconception came up that privacy protocols are just mixers for money laundering. Once Zama got to explain to the court what the tech actually does, that misunderstanding got cleared up and the freeze was lifted within 10 minutes. Probably the fastest reversal of a court order freezing crypto assets ever. It showed how much misunderstanding still exists around privacy tech in general. But it also showed that having a real compliance posture goes a long way when you're trying to build trust with institutions. @randhindi (@zama) on what happened

Welcome to Stablecoin Day. 🏦 @bilalelalamy opens with @zama’s thesis: FHE lets blockchains process encrypted data without ever decrypting it - compliant transactions, private balances, on-chain confidentiality. Speakers from BPI, Natixis, CRYMBO, NGPES, and more up next.

At which point is enough enough? We have the tools to solve this, and it takes literally hours to integrate @zama into a payment infrastructure or stablecoin neobank product. Ask @raycashxyz , they did it

T-REX has $100B in committed RWAs. Shielding just 5% with @zama instantly makes it the largest privacy protocol in Web3. Institutions need compliance confidentiality. $ZAMA FHE delivers.
Rand Hindi reveals how just 5% of one RWA protocol could make Zama the largest privacy protocol in crypto: “T-REX already has $100 billion committed to its protocol. If just 5% of those existing commitments get shielded with Zama, it would make Zama the largest privacy protocol by total value shielded.” “Privacy is still tiny today compared to the enormity of finance moving onchain. We talk about billions in DeFi today, but we’re going to be talking about trillions.”

"You can't be everything to everyone, especially when it comes to privacy. Zama is not trying to be Zcash."
Rand Hindi explains why Zama is not competing with Zcash or Bitcoin: “We’re building blockchain infrastructure for financial institutions with the same level of compliance and confidentiality they have offchain.”

This list is insane, people built everything in FHE: prediction markets, RWA settlements, private payments, casino games, compliance tools, etc. Each of these could be a billion dollar company given the right distribution channels and resources. AI FHE is clearly the winning combination, there are no limits to what can be done now!

He just summarized everything that all you need is ethereum:0xa12cc123ba206d4031d1c7f6223d1c2ec249f4f3 and it’s live on Ethereum already. It gives you all the features he talked about! Private money that is usable ! Zama is there when it comes to payments, RWA, DEFI and identity as well. Who else got this much sauce ? None ! Now you know why I am bullish? And on, that’s just web3 capabilities… web2 has its own set of use cases as well ! Strap in ladies and gentlemen!
Kyle Reidhead explains why privacy being inevitable doesn’t make him bullish on Zcash “I’m not bullish on Zcash at all. I think privacy is important, don’t get me wrong, but that’s obvious. This isn’t a narrative. It’s just the basics of finance for most cases, it should probably be private.” “The problem with Zcash is there are no financial services. It’s basically just Bitcoin, which is great, it’s a thing that you hold. But why do we need that to be private? What we want private is DeFi on Ethereum, because we can’t have BlackRock come in, start using Aave, and have everyone read everything they’re doing onchain.”

Little known fact: the Zama portfolio app allows you to see a confidential transaction and connect your wallet to decrypt the amount you received! Sender and recipient can decrypt, but no one else. Quite handy if you pay someone and they need to check the tx! Eg: portfolio.zama.org/tx/1/0x40…

I am very excited to announce that @zama has acquired @TokenOps_xyz, a full-stack solution for token distribution and vesting that has been used to distribute over $2b so far. Here is why we made the deal and what it means for the Zama Protocol. # The problem TokenOps is solving When a company or foundation launches a token, they typically distribute a large portion to their team, early investors and treasury. The issue with doing this on public chains is that every allocation and wallet is visible to everyone. This is a lose-lose situation for everyone involved: - long-term holders who believe in the project get penalized by bots who front-run token unlocks and push the price down - team members become targets for hackers and criminals who use tools like Arkham to check how much they hold in their wallets. France alone had 60 kidnappings of crypto founders, employees and family members since the start of the year! - early investors get flagged on social media and front-run by bots the instant they move tokens to exchanges, leading them to lose a lot of upside. And if investors don't make good returns, they'll imply stop investing and you won't anyone funding new projects in the future. - treasuries and foundations cannot effectively manage their assets, and often have to split holdings across hundreds of wallets, creating massive operational overhead TokenOps solves exactly this. By using the Zama Protocol, they enable token issuers to distribute, vest and manage allocations privately, while remaining fully onchain and self-custodial. Each team member and investor can have a single wallet receiving an encrypted amount of tokens. From the outside, you only see that the wallet received tokens and what the vesting terms are, but you no longer know the amount itself. Beyond confidential distribution and vesting, we are also working on enabling confidential swaps directly within TokenOps, so that anyone receiving an allocation can buy and sell tokens seamlessly without anyone knowing the size or direction. This turns vesting from a static product into an active venue for OTC, treasury management and hedging on compliant rails. And just like we used our own technology to run our token sale, we will of course use it to distribute allocations to our team and investors. In the coming months, we will shield the entire supply earmarked for team and investors, and distribute it through TokenOps' confidential onchain vesting contracts. # How this benefits the Zama Protocol 1. it's a great use case of the technology, and it solves a real problem in the market that no transparent solution can address. 2. it creates extremely sticky TVS (Total Value Shielded) for the protocol. Whenever someone gets a vested allocation, they become a user of the Zama Protocol for the duration of their lockup, which is typically 2-4 years. That gives us 2-4 years to build utility for them so they never have to unshield their tokens and leave Zama. 3. it generates real revenue for the Zama Protocol. Every distribution, every claim, every confidential swap generates onchain fees, and all of these fees accrue directly to the protocol and are used to buy back and burn $ZAMA. Over the next few months, we will turn TokenOps from a SaaS product into a fully onchain platform, owned entirely by the Zama Protocol. Anyone will be able to permissionlessly build on top of it and add confidential distribution and vesting features to their own apps. If you plan to issue a token, take it for a spin at tokenops.xyz!
