Introducing the Privacy Boost App

Introducing the Privacy Boost App

Today we're launching the Privacy Boost App. Now you can manage your crypto privately: pay friends, hold positions, and unlink relationships between wallets, all while staying fully self-custodial.

Privacy Boost has been available only to enterprises as an SDK. Starting today, it's open to everyone. Enjoy enterprise-grade onchain privacy with the wallet you already use. The app is built on the same Privacy Boost SDK that powers enterprise use cases like Toss, the fintech app where two-thirds of Koreans manage their finances.

Over time, we'll extend it to cover the full lifecycle of crypto asset management.

What makes the Privacy Boost App different?

Until now, onchain privacy tools have aimed for absolute privacy: they hide transaction data from everyone, including regulators. That all-or-nothing design is exactly what created the lasting tension between privacy users and regulators. And that tension comes with real risks for users: your address could get flagged by onchain analytics, your deposits could be held up at exchanges, all just for using a privacy tool.

Privacy Boost takes a different approach. Our ZK+TEE hybrid architecture supports auditor read access through viewing keys, so you get onchain privacy while designated auditors can still verify activity when legitimately required. It's privacy that is regulatory-friendly by design.

And that same enterprise-grade architecture solves the UX problems that plague other onchain privacy apps. Transactions are cheap and fast: TEE-based batching keeps fees low, and preconfirmations land in under a second.

What can I do with it?

  • Pay friends privately. Deposit funds into your private balance, then send and receive without exposing amounts, balances, or transaction history. Save recipients to your private address book so paying someone again is one click.
  • Hold positions privately. Keep your holdings confidential over time. No one watching the chain can see what you hold or how much.
  • Unlink your wallets. Withdraw to a fresh address to break the onchain link between your wallets, so your past activity doesn't follow you to your new address. And through it all, everything stays self-custodial: your keys, your funds, always.

What's next?

We're launching today, and we're already heads down on what's next. V2 brings direct ERC-20 deposits (Portal), private DeFi, more wallet integrations, and mobile. Same self-custodial privacy, more of your financial life.

So try the app, stay tuned, and ask us anything.
