Dev update + takeaway from the recent stream and MVP mainnet release:
ZERA Confidential SDKs are on the roadmap for third-party integrations across apps and agentic flows.
This release wasn’t just the Dashboard, it’s also the component stack we’ve been building from day one:
Private transactions between wallets now possible on Solana using ZERAs Private Cash Addresses.
A closer look at last week’s MVP drop: Private P2P.
Most "privacy" on Solana still falls back to withdraw-to-address (recipient + metadata leaks) or multi-step send flows that leave
💵 Cash-style P2P using ZERAs Private Cash Addresses.
One atomic in-pool send, no withdraw-to-address trails, no multi-step choreography. Sender note is nullified and new encrypted notes are created entirely inside the vault.

now come test @zeralabs dashboard and encrypt some usdc(more/all assets soon), private p2p with frens or export note → hand to fren offline → they import later in UX
true digital cash motion
MVP Update:
Hardened Privacy and Mobile support for the Dashboard.
The relay fallback solution is live, with the ZERA Protocol now signing for P2P transfers, note splits and withdrawals.
Amounts and recipients were already private. This update means private transfers, note
After the relay update, there is no longer any wallet-level leakage on P2P transfers or withdraws that can connect a user’s wallet to Protocol activity. (Amounts and recipients were already private.)
What’s visible now:
Alice deposit = visible
The in-link into the Protocol is
Making payment rails for third-party apps, automated flows, and AI agents private with just a few lines of code.
ZERAs Confidential SDKs, another update in the immediate pipeline, will open the door to broader usage, with protocol-level buyback + 🔥 burn always on underneath.
Multi-Asset Support is now live in the ZERA Dashboard.
You can now shield your holdings and transact privately with ZERA, SOL & USDC using ZERAs Private Cash Addresses.
This update is a step toward a more modular privacy layer on Solana, where new SPL assets can be integrated
Three pools live on mainnet: USDC, SOL, ZERA. Each with its own private merkle tree, its own asset-bound ZK proofs, its own burn mechanics. More pools on the way.
With yesterday’s multi-asset update, ZERA took another step toward becoming a broader privacy layer for Solana.
That means the path is now open for more tokens to be added for private holding, sending, and receiving.
Likely next in line: $wBTC and $ZEC.
Some additional
Multi-asset burn math is the tricky part. Each token has a different USD price and different decimals. We read Pyth feeds on-chain per deposit, compute the burn in USD, route that value through Meteora → ZERA → burn.
While Stablecoins skip the oracle being 1:1.
why three separate programs?
1/ Upgrade blast radius. If we ship a subtle circuit bug that only shows up at scale, the damage is contained to one pool. Other pools keep running. You can pause/upgrade/migrate independently.
2/ Proof-system binding. Each pool has an asset_hash
btw the SOL pool deposits and withdraws feel native now. You send SOL, you get SOL. No manual wSOL wrapping, no leftover wSOL ATAs to clean up, no mental overhead.
Under the hood the contract handles the wrap on deposit and the unwrap on withdraw.
