The Shielding Demo is currently available on the EVM Testnet, and users can explore the Testnet version of zkOS to witness its capabilities ahead of the Common app’s release. The zkOS aims to balance user confidentiality with regulatory requirements, offering a solution that addresses privacy concerns in the crypto and blockchain space.
As the testnet progresses, Aleph Zero plans to refine Shielding and zkOS for its Mainnet deployment.
The demo allows users to test Aleph Zero’s zkOS privacy layer through an intuitive interface.
