ZERA

ZERA Protocol V3 is here. This is a major protocol and UX upgrade for ZERA Private Cash. Users now see a single online private balance, with no manual split flow, as well as a separate offline private balance. Under the hood, the new 2-in-2-out circuit handles split, change, merge, dust absorption, and note consolidation automatically. That means the wallet can feel simple on the surface, while the protocol keeps doing the hard ZK accounting underneath. V3 also introduces a hardened stealth-note pipeline with per-note ownership keys, plus a cleaner separation between online spendable notes and offline vault notes — an important foundation for cold-storage notes and future offline payments. This means: ✅ Cleaner UX ✅ Send any amount instantly ✅ Stronger note privacy ✅ Better wallet abstraction ✅ Built for offline payments A full technical article breaking down the V3 architecture is coming soon. Next up: The additional asset drops, while development now shifts toward the ZERA mobile app and with it the full trustless offline flow. True digital cash is not a feature. It’s a stack, and ZERA V3 is a major step forward. Welcome to the new Zero Knowledge Era. Give the ZERA Dashboard a try ⤵️

Current focus: Making private balances feel far more natural to use with the note merge update. This is the next major UX upgrade for ZERA. Right now, private balances can be spread across separate notes, with no merge functionality yet, and manual splitting still needed before some sends and withdrawals. The merge update abstracts all of that away. What it means in practice: ✅ One private balance per asset, not a stack of notes. ✅ Deposits and incoming transfers merge automatically. ✅ Sends and withdrawals split automatically when needed. All of it happens in the background. Under the hood, this is enabled by an upgraded 2-in-2-out circuit, so merge, split, and transfer all share the same privacy shape on-chain. Better UX. Even stronger privacy. Current protocol support: SOL, USDC & ZERA. Once this update goes live, the broader rollout of additional asset support begins. Likely first in line: $wBTC, $ZEC. With one of the strongest community suggestions so far in the meme category: $NEET. What token do you want to shield, hold and transact privately with?

BREAKING: XRP is live on Solana

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 with a cleaner and more scalable path as the protocol evolves. ✅ More assets. ✅ More utility. ✅ More private flows. Let us know what token you want to see added next! Note: Current fees are temporary while final testing is underway. The long-term target remains a 0.5% ZERA buyback & burn rate, with additional fees removed for this phase. Give the ZERA Dashboard a try here ⤵️

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: SDK layer + API layer + data layer. We already have TypeScript SDKs in the codebase that we’re now cleaning up and preparing to publish, so developers can plug ZERA’s privacy primitives into wallets, apps, or services without being locked into a single front-end. This gets especially interesting for AI / agentic systems: the goal is "a few lines of code" to give bots, agents, and automated workflows native, privacy-preserving value movement using the same rails that power the ZERA Dashboard. And importantly: the buyback + 🔥 burn mechanics are program and smart contract-based, meaning they remain active regardless of who integrates the SDK. As privacy volume expands across the third-party ecosystem, the incentive layer stays always-on — and the $ZERA token supply keeps tightening as designed. More details soon. Missed the stream?
