Privacy as a Feature
The Privacy Standard for Web3. One toggle to shield sender, amount, and recipient. Open source, auditable, and compliance-ready with viewing keys.
Why We Build SIP
On-chain investigation incidents have exposed a critical vulnerability: transparent activity enables coordinated attacks on traders. Market makers, DAOs, and individuals all face risks when their transaction history is public.
SIP Protocol addresses this by bringing Zcash-level privacy to cross-chain transactions. Not as a separate chain, but as a privacy layer that works with the intent-based infrastructure you already use.
Our vision: privacy should be a toggle, not a tradeoff.
Privacy by Default
Financial privacy is a fundamental right. SIP makes it accessible with a single toggle, not a complex setup.
Application Layer
We complement existing infrastructure, not compete with it. SIP works with NEAR Intents and Zcash, not against them.
Compliance Ready
Privacy and compliance can coexist. Viewing keys enable selective disclosure for auditors and regulators.
How SIP Works
A privacy layer built on proven cryptographic primitives
NEAR Intents
We leverage NEAR's intent-based architecture and solver network for cross-chain execution. SIP adds privacy to intents without modifying the underlying infrastructure.
Zcash Cryptography
Battle-tested privacy primitives from Zcash: Pedersen commitments for hiding amounts, and techniques adapted from the shielded pool for transaction privacy.

Solo Founder, SIP Protocol • 🇮🇩 Indonesia
💡 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.
🔐 Why Privacy?
Remember when HTTP was the norm? We now consider sites without HTTPS dangerous. Web3 is in its HTTP era — transparency is the default, but crime follows money. As Web3 matures, privacy becomes essential defense. SIP doesn't ignore blockchain fundamentals — it makes them better. Privacy isn't hiding, it's protection.
⚡ Why Solo?
Many doubt solo founders. I think differently. After building with teams, I learned that wrong teams are more dangerous than external threats — they're internal ones. Good projects with good teams still die from lack of synchronization. Solo means pure execution.
