SIP Protocol
The Privacy Standard for Solana Ecosystem
Privacy middleware for Web3 — like HTTPS for the internet. One toggle to shield any transaction. Chain-agnostic. Settlement-agnostic. Starting with Solana.
Key Metrics
Privacy Standard for Web3
SIP is to privacy what HTTPS is to the web. One toggle to shield any transaction.
Chain-Agnostic
Enhance every chain, compete with none
Settlement-Agnostic
One API, multiple backends
Compliance-Ready
Viewing keys for institutions
Privacy on Solana Has No Standard
Privacy Projects Failed
- •Elusiv sunset Feb 2024
- •Light Protocol pivoted to ZK Compression
- •Otter Cash never launched
No Privacy Standard
- •No EIP-5564 for Solana
- •Developers have no tools
- •Each project builds from scratch
Cross-Chain Privacy Gap
- •Wormhole: transparent
- •deBridge: transparent
- •All bridges leak data
Institutional Blockers
- •No compliance features
- •All-or-nothing privacy
- •Regulatory uncertainty
SIP Protocol: Privacy That Ships
Privacy middleware for Solana and beyond. Plug in our SDK, enable the toggle, done.
Stealth Addresses
EIP-5564 adapted for multi-curve (secp256k1 + ed25519). Native Solana support.
Pedersen Commitments
Homomorphic commitments hide amounts while enabling mathematical verification.
Viewing Keys
Selective disclosure for compliance. Auditors can verify without exposing user data.
Privacy Levels
Transparent, Shielded, or Compliant. Users and apps choose their level.
Perfect Fit for Privacy Standard
High Throughput
Privacy operations require compute. Solana handles it at scale.
Growing DeFi
Jupiter, Raydium, Meteora. Privacy unlocks institutional capital.
Wallet Ecosystem
Phantom, Solflare, Backpack. Native integration opportunities.
Cross-Chain Hub
Wormhole, NEAR bridge. Privacy makes Solana the private gateway.
Production-Ready, Not Vaporware

SIP vs Arcium: Different Layers
Arcium is confidential compute infrastructure. SIP is privacy middleware. We complement, not compete.
Arcium
Confidential Compute- •MPC network for confidential computation
- •Solana-native infrastructure layer
- •Focuses on compute privacy (processing)
- •Requires apps to integrate MPC
- ⚠Testnet only (mainnet TBD)
SIP Protocol
Privacy Middleware- •Transaction privacy (stealth addresses, commitments)
- •Chain-agnostic middleware layer
- •Focuses on transfer privacy (sending/receiving)
- •Simple SDK integration (“one toggle”)
- ✓Live SDK, 2,757+ tests, npm published
They can work together: Arcium for confidential compute, SIP for transaction privacy.
Future integration possible: Use Arcium MPC for SIP's proof generation.
Other Privacy Solutions
| Project | Status | SIP Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Elusiv | Sunset | We're shipping |
| Light Protocol | Pivoted | We're privacy-focused |
| Wormhole | No privacy | We add privacy layer |
| Aztec | ETH only | We're multi-chain |
Key Differentiator: SIP is the ONLY cross-chain privacy middleware with compliance features (viewing keys).
Arcium = Infrastructure | SIP = Application Layer | We complement the ecosystem.
Technical Architecture
SIP combines settlement flexibility with proof composition for a unique privacy standard.
One privacy layer, settle anywhere
- Unified API regardless of backend
- NEAR Intents → Mina → Direct Chain
- Creates standardization & switching costs
Compose proofs for unique capabilities
- Zcash privacy + Mina verification
- Noir validity proofs
- Technical moat, hard to replicate
