Private Zcash. Multichain DeFi. Zero Compromise

The problem Cipher solves

Privacy-preserving cross-chain DeFi access for Zcash holders.

Zcash users have strong privacy but are isolated from DeFi opportunities on Ethereum, Solana, etc. This bridge lets them:

  • Shield ZEC into private pZEC on NEAR
  • Access DeFi (lending, swaps, staking) across multiple chains
  • Maintain privacy through ZK proofs and NEAR's intent system
  • Unshield back to ZEC when done
