BUILDING BLOCKS FOR INSTITUTIONAL-GRADE PRIVACY
Core Technical Capabilities
Our dark pool implementation is built on a foundation of battle-tested, modular components designed for security, performance, and compliance. We deliver the technical depth required for institutional adoption.
01
Zero-Knowledge Order Matching
Private order matching using zk-SNARKs (Circom/Groth16) to conceal trade size, price, and participant identity until settlement. Ensures front-running resistance and market integrity.
