The winners of the Cloak Track are here.
95 submissions. Builders from everywhere exploring what happens when privacy stops being a feature and becomes infrastructure.
The hardest part wasn’t finding good projects. It was choosing between them.
When there was a tie, we optimized for range: one winner per use case, to show how broad private payments can actually become.

@tendrdotbid )
Private RFP procurement where bids stay sealed until close, eliminating information leakage and preventing either side from cheating.

A privacy execution layer on top of Squads v4, routing multisig approvals through Cloak’s ZK infrastructure.
4th: TUMAR
A non-custodial family investment vault for the Kazakh diaspora, combining private payments with real-world asset exposure.

And to everyone who didn’t win this time: keep building. Cloak will continue supporting teams pushing privacy forward.
This is what the future of private payments looks like when builders take the problem seriously.
