Coming soon. The clearing layer is in design. This page states the privacy and control model it is being built to - each claim here is a design requirement, not a launch announcement.

Nobody Sees Your Book

Your book is your edge, and a netting engine needs to read the whole graph. Both stay true:
  • The only place positions are ever readable is a sealed engine - attested hardware whose exact program is verifiable on-chain. Decryption happens there and nowhere else.
  • You see your own slice. Every member holds the same encrypted records; only yours open under your key. Your edges, your net number - nobody else’s.
  • Netting is itself a privacy technology. A debt that nets never moves on any chain: the matched majority of flow leaves no on-chain trace at all, and the chain checks one proof per run, not one position.
  • A broken seal could leak - it could never forge. Correctness does not depend on the hardware: every run’s result passes an on-chain validity proof, so even a compromised engine cannot move a dollar or invent a debt. The honest statement of the trust model: no decryption mechanism exists outside the attested enclaves, the code that can hold keys is governed on-chain and reproducible by outsiders, and independent operators join the key federation on a published schedule.

Who Sees What

Who You End Up Facing

Netting has a reputation for changing who you face. This one cannot:
  • Your counterparty never changes. A clearing house would step into every trade and become your counterparty - that is novation, and it never happens here. Your accepted trade stays yours, and money forwards only along edges that already exist.
  • The perimeter guarantee. You only ever face firms your policy approved, and netting never expands that set. Nobody outside your perimeter ever receives value from you.
  • Compliance can exclude, never redirect. A rule can mask a pairing out of a run; it can never map money somewhere new, and a blocked pairing never becomes anyone’s claim on you.
  • A default hits the pair, never the pool. There is no default fund and no mutualized loss: you can only ever lose your own position with the defaulter.

The Lines That Never Move

  • No clearing house. Debts are extinguished by set-off between the parties that signed them - never novated onto a middleman.
  • No pooled custody. Funds move wallet to wallet on rails you already use; the protocol never holds them.
  • No locked capital. No margin, no pre-funding; your wallet is untouched until the pull window opens.
  • No trust-us phase. Value flows only when the full stack is live: the proof verified on-chain, the engine attested, replicas running, and a member recovery drill demonstrated. Until then: test networks and shadow runs only.
  • No edit path. Obligations are write-once; corrections are signed offsetting entries, and nobody - operator included - can alter what you signed.

How It Works

The clearing run step by step, funding, and where the residual goes.

Where It Applies

One clearing layer, many kinds of debt - and why every new lane raises everyone’s ratio.
