Privacy overview

Veilpay’s privacy architecture combines practical wallet privacy features with a longer-term native privacy-chain roadmap.

Current primitives

• Stealth-address utilities.
• Encrypted notes.
• ZK-oriented proof and privacy-pool scaffolding.
• Stellar SPP testnet integration work.

Design goals

• Reduce unnecessary public linkability.
• Keep private material on-device.
• Avoid logging or storing secrets.
• Make privacy mode explicit and understandable.
• Gate mainnet privacy features behind audits and operational controls.

Privacy boundaries

Not every Veilpay payment is private by default. Standard chain transfers remain visible on the underlying network. Stronger privacy modes require additional protocol support and user-visible flow changes.

In this section

• Stealth addresses — one-time recipient addresses that reduce linkability.
• Encrypted notes — recipient-only memo protection.
• Zero-knowledge direction — proof and privacy-pool scaffolding, and the gates before it is production-live.
• Stellar Private Payments — the first native privacy-chain track, testnet-first and mainnet-gated.
• Privacy-chain roadmap — staged plan across Stellar SPP, Monero, Zcash, and Midnight.
