The Problem

Solana Privacy Needs an Upgrade

Pool mixing exposes amounts. Cryptographic privacy hides everything. Solana deserves the next generation.

Pool Mixing Exposes Amounts

Pool-based privacy solutions expose transaction amounts on-chain. Fixed pool sizes and visible amounts enable correlation attacks.

Privacy Vacuum on Solana

Elusiv sunset in Feb 2024. Light Protocol pivoted to ZK Compression. The market needs cryptographic privacy โ€” not just pool mixing.

Limited Compliance Options

Most privacy solutions lack viewing keys for selective disclosure. DAOs and institutions need compliance-ready privacy.

The Solution

SIP: Cryptographic Privacy That Ships

Not a mixer. Not a pool. True cryptographic privacy with built-in compliance.

Stealth Addresses

EIP-5564 for Solana. One-time recipient addresses prevent linkability. No fixed pools needed.

Pedersen Commitments

Any amount, hidden cryptographically. No amount correlation attacks possible.

Viewing Keys

Selective disclosure for compliance. DAOs and institutions can audit without compromising user privacy.

Same-Chain Privacy

Privacy for Solana-to-Solana transfers. 10-20x bigger market than cross-chain only.

Why SIP Wins

SIP vs PrivacyCash

Solana privacy landscape: Elusiv sunset Feb 2024. Light Protocol pivoted to ZK compression. PrivacyCash is currently the only active privacy solution on Solana โ€” SIP brings cryptographic privacy to fill this gap.

Solo Founder, SIP Protocol โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฉ Indonesia

๐Ÿ’ก About

Indonesian developer building the privacy standard for Web3. Blockchain architect with $10,800+ in hackathon wins (2024-2025) including MonkeDAO, Zypherpunk, and Superteam Indonesia. 5,600+ contributions across 170 repos. Focused on cryptographic privacy, cross-chain infrastructure, and high-performance systems. Privacy is a right, not a feature.

๐Ÿ” Why Privacy?

Remember when HTTP was the norm? We now consider sites without HTTPS dangerous. Web3 is in its HTTP era โ€” transparency is the default, but crime follows money. As Web3 matures, privacy becomes essential defense. SIP doesn't ignore blockchain fundamentals โ€” it makes them better. Privacy isn't hiding, it's protection.

โšก Why Solo?

Many doubt solo founders. I think differently. After building with teams, I learned that wrong teams are more dangerous than external threats โ€” they're internal ones. Good projects with good teams still die from lack of synchronization. Solo means pure execution.

No committee decisionsNo synchronization overheadShip fast, iterate faster

๐ŸŽฏ The Endgame2028
