Plasma develops a confidentiality module to enable shielded stablecoin transactions without altering core EVM behavior or requiring custom tokens. The module uses zero-knowledge proofs and homomorphic encryption to hide amounts recipients and metadata while keeping settlement fully valid on the public ledger. This preserves transparency for auditing where needed while protecting sensitive payment details.
Selective disclosure mechanisms allow authorized parties to reveal specific transaction elements through verifiable proofs. This supports compliance for institutional and enterprise payments without compromising privacy for everyday stablecoin flows.
The module integrates natively with the protocol-managed paymaster. Shielded USDT transfers qualify for zero-fee sponsorship under eligibility rules and rate limits. This extends gasless functionality to private operations maintaining high-frequency usability.
PlasmaBFT consensus sequences shielded transactions with sub-second finality and high throughput. Reth execution layer processes EVM-compatible logic in privacy-preserving contracts. Custom gas tokens support fees in whitelisted assets for advanced shielded interactions.
Proof-of-Stake with XPL staking secures the network including privacy features. Delegation distributes rewards from controlled inflation while EIP-1559 base fee burning offsets supply growth for balanced tokenomics.
The confidentiality module strengthens Plasma's stablecoin-first design. It enables private secure payments at scale while balancing privacy compliance and efficiency. The architecture prioritizes cryptographic protections native to the protocol for modern settlement demands. @Plasma a $XPL L L #Plasma
