プライバシー対応ステーブルコインL2の @payy_link が、FirstMark 主導で $6M を調達。DBA、Robot Ventures が参加。 ✅ プロジェクト概要 Payy は、Polybase Labs が開発するプライバシー対応のステーブルコイン L2 です。ZK ロールアップと EVM 互換を組み合わせ、送受信者・金額などのトランザクション情報をデフォルトで秘匿化したまま USDC などのステーブルコインを保有・支出できる設計です。 プロダクトは Payy Wallet(非管理型ウォレット)、Payy Card(Visa 加盟店で使えるカード)、Payy Network(ZK L2 本体)の3層構成です。Payy Network は 300ms のブロックタイムと最大 100,000 tps を持ち、ERC-20 転送の手数料は平均ゼロとのことです。100カ国以上・14の法定通貨に対応し、累計 1,000 万件超のトランザクション実績があるとのことです。 技術面では、EVM バイトコードにコンパイルされる Private EVM、デフォルトプライバシープール、プライベートデータストレージを中核に置いています。コンプライアンス対応は「プライバシープール」モデルで処理し、オンチェーン活動の秘匿とコンプライアンス要件の両立を Payy Network レイヤーで完結させる構成です。

FirstMark backed Shopify before anyone bought anything online. Discord before anyone gamed with strangers. Airbnb before anyone turned their home into a hotel. Now they're betting privacy onchain is next. We raised $6M led by @FirstMarkCap to make private transactions the default. Joined by @dba_xyz & @robotventures. Investors who understand that privacy isn’t a feature, it's the foundation.

Private Stablecoin Payments Are Back? Payy Raises $6M for Hidden Transactions A new trend is emerging in crypto — private stablecoin payments. Payy (formerly Polybase) has raised $6 million in a seed round led by FirstMark Capital to build a zero-knowledge payment network. The goal: hide transaction amounts, addresses, and activity while remaining compliant with regulations. According to the project, it already serves over 100,000 users across 120 countries with around $130 million in annualized transaction volume. Built on Ethereum Layer 2, the network uses Halo2 — the same ZK framework as Zcash — enabling privacy without a trusted setup. Unlike privacy coins like Monero or Zcash, Payy focuses on USDC, combining stability with confidentiality. This positions it closer to traditional payment systems while addressing a key limitation of transparent blockchains. Key question: can privacy and regulation coexist in stablecoin payments? Full text of the news is available on our news portal cryptemic.com Learn how zero-knowledge technology works, how blockchain privacy is achieved, and how to assess risks in emerging payment systems with Cryptemic Academy. #Crypto #Stablecoin #Privacy #ZK #Ethereum #Web3 #cryptemic #cryptemicacademy

Payy Analysis - Raised $6M seed led by FirstMark Capital (total funding $8M) for zero-knowledge private stablecoin transactions on an Ethereum L2 rollup. - Pivoted from web3 database Polybase in 2023; offers self-custodial USDC wallet, Visa card, with testnet launching soon. - Targets enterprise barrier: public ledgers expose all payment details. Current traction: $130M annualized volume, 100k users. - Alpha angle: In a transparency-obsessed industry, Payy reframes privacy as competitive infrastructure—potentially the "encrypted channel" for institutional flows that public chains cannot serve.

👀이더리움 공계가 주목한 프로젝트 - Payy 요즘 X를 통해 정보를 얻다가 Payy라는 프로젝트에 대해 알아봄. 이더리움 공계도 인용했더라! 이게 뭔데? • 이더리움(EVM) 지갑 그대로 쓰면서, ERC-20 전송은 기본값으로 프라이빗하게 만들어주는 “프라이버시 내장형” L2 네트워크 팀/백커는? • Polybase Labs (Payy Wallet / Payy Network 빌더) • Robot Ventures, DBA Crypto, 6th Man Ventures • 투자규모는 공식적으로 프리시드 $2M 정리 ⚡️ → 따로 믹서 쓰거나 지갑 갈아탈 필요 없이 “네트워크 추가 후 전송”만으로 프라이버시가 적용되는 UX를 목표

Most people still think all blockchains work like Ethereum. @0xMiden quietly said “nah” and built something different @0xPolygon Miden’s VM is a STARK-based zkVM (written in Rust) that’s designed for privacy from the ground up. You run programs locally, it generates a small proof that everything was executed correctly and only that proof hits Ethereum. No details leaked. Lower fees, higher throughput. It’s fully open-source, Turing-complete, supports safer languages like Rust, allows parallel execution and even lets users prove their own state changes client-side instead of broadcasting everything. Not EVM-compatible on purpose that’s how they unlock better privacy performance. Testnet’s live, tools are public, and real projects like Polybase are already building on it. This is ZK infra that feels built for where crypto is going, not where it’s been.

in my view, i am highly confident the price $POLY will see a sharp increase in the next few hours; this is a short‑term call only. 24h price down over forty percent while 24h volume sits around one‑third of market cap, pointing to heavy churn against thin liquidity. ct narrative is dominated by polymarket $POLY token and 2026 airdrop chatter, mixed with bot‑farming claims, otc fdv talk, and a whale capitulation headline on base ai agents. context: polybase, founded by sid gandhi, targets a wallet‑native zk database stack; this $POLY on base appears aligned with that builder narrative rather than polymarket. for deeper on‑chain reads and cross‑market token intel, follow @Velvet_Capital.

FRUSTRATING TO MAKE A CRYPTO TRANSACTION TODAY RIGHT? 👀 Cause of the Aws server crash😅, the damn irony Isn’t crypto built to escape centralization control? Ehm yes but well most of our current crypto industry runs on Amazon servers When Satoshi wrote the @Bitcoin whitepaper, the vision was clear, a system no one could shut down, censor, or own. But today, most exchanges, DeFi dashboards, price APIs, NFT marketplaces even node providers depend on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Here’s how AWS affects crypto transactions: 1. Most crypto apps and exchanges depend on AWS servers. When you use Binance, MetaMask, or a DeFi site, your transaction still interacts with their web front-end or API hosted on AWS. If AWS goes down, you might not even be able to send the transaction, even though the blockchain itself is still running. 2. Node providers (like Infura, Alchemy, QuickNode) run on AWS. These services connect wallets and apps to blockchains. If AWS suffers an outage, those nodes stop responding. For example, when Infura went down in 2020 (AWS issue), MetaMask users couldn’t send Ethereum transactions for hours even though Ethereum itself was fine. 3. Exchange downtime freezes on-chain activity. Centralized exchanges like Coinbase or Binance often can’t process deposits, withdrawals, or API calls during AWS disruptions. That delays trades, arbitrage, and liquidations directly affecting prices and liquidity. 4. Impact on block explorers and analytics. Even tools like Etherscan or DefiLlama run on cloud servers. If AWS goes down, you lose visibility into network status and transactions, which amplifies panic. So yes AWS doesn’t control the blockchain, but it controls much of the infrastructure layer that people use to access the blockchain. Important nuance: 1. The blockchain network itself (e.g. Ethereum, Bitcoin) is still running if its nodes are live those aren’t usually reliant on one cloud provider entirely. 2. What dies is the infrastructure that bridges you, users, services to the blockchain. 3. Sometimes, even though the chain works, users feel like “crypto is broken” because their interface or wallet can’t send or show their tx. So you might be wondering, what about having decentralized alternatives? There are already some that can potentially replace Aws like: For storage: Filecoin, Arweave, Storj, Sia To replace: AWS S3 (file storage) For compute/hosting: Akash Network, Flux, Golem To replace: AWS EC2 (servers for apps) For Node & RPC Infra: Pocket Network, Ankr, Dymension, QuickNode’s decentralized modes To replace: AWS-hosted node providers For content delivery: Theta Edge Network, Livepeer To replace: AWS CloudFront, media delivery For Databases/api: Ceramic, Tableland, Polybase To replace: AWS RDS, API Gateway They work by distributing your app or storage across many independent nodes instead of a single server like Aws But Crypto projects use AWS because it’s faster, cheaper, and more stable for real-world workloads while decentralized hosting is still too slow, costly, and unreliable for high-demand services. E.g AWS can instantly scale a blockchain explorer or exchange backend to handle millions of user requests per second, while decentralized hosts like Filecoin or Akash would struggle with latency, uptime guarantees, and autoscaling under sudden traffic spikes also Aws has more trust. So unless changes happen Aws down and we sad🙂‍↔️
