Somnia Privacy

Somnia Privacy brings privacy pools to Somnia. Deposit into a shared pool, then transact or withdraw with a zero-knowledge proof, so positions, balances and counterparties stay private, while association sets let you prove your funds are not linked to illicit sources.

Confidential capital, with compliance built in.

Why Somnia Privacy

Keep strategy and positions private

Desks, funds and treasuries move capital without broadcasting their balances, counterparties or trading intent to every observer on the chain.

Prove what matters, reveal nothing else

Withdrawals carry a zero-knowledge proof that the funds belong to an approved association set, without revealing which deposit they came from.

Selective disclosure for auditors

Viewing keys let an account share its history with an auditor, administrator or regulator, without making it public.

Built into the markets

Shielded balances sit on the same chain as the order books, USDso and Somnia Lend, so private capital can still settle, trade and borrow.

How a privacy pool works

Deposit. Assets go into a shared pool contract, and the depositor keeps a private note that proves ownership.
Screen. Association set providers publish sets of deposits that meet their criteria, such as excluding sanctioned sources.
Prove. To withdraw or transfer, the owner generates a zero-knowledge proof of ownership and of membership in a chosen association set.
Withdraw. The pool verifies the proof onchain and releases funds to a fresh address, unlinked to the original deposit.
Disclose if needed. A viewing key lets the owner reveal their history to a chosen party, such as an auditor, without making it public.
