Zama is the fastest growing confidentiality protocol for onchain finance.
Today, Zama expands confidential access to 16 curated yield vaults across 5 institutional curators and 5 assets: USDC, USDT, AUSD, WBTC, and tGBP, all deployed on @Morpho.
The same trusted curators and strategies that institutional capital already uses, now with confidential entry.
Alongside the vaults, the Zama Confidential Swap Protocol goes live. Swap between confidential assets without exposing intent or size.

When @randhindi and cryptographer Pascal Paillier started @zama in 2020, it was a cryptography company with no plans for crypto. Every use case they explored for FHE led to the same place: if finance moves onchain, it needs confidentiality first.
After publishing a report on confidential DeFi, we sat down with Rand to hear where that conclusion has led, and why he thinks onchain finance is due the moment HTTPS gave the internet:

Since @zama went live on mainnet, we've committed to showing the community the numbers every quarter.
That's why we created Shielded. It tracks network health, confidential token adoption, and who is building on the confidentiality layer for onchain finance across our partner ecosystem.
Transparent reporting is the best way to run a protocol. It's also our chance as a team to look back at the quarter and see what worked.
Q3 is live. Read it here: zama.org/shielded
Zama retweeted
Privacy has been one of the biggest things keeping institutions from putting real capital onchain.
But new privacy tools and vaults are starting to change that.
@zama's Shielded TVL went from $39.6M to over $130M over the quarter, up 245.7%.
99% of that increase came from confidential vaults, which went from one to 16 in a single quarter.
The report says 6% of all Morpho deposits on Ethereum in Q3 came from Zama.
The vaults are curated by @Bitwise, Armitage by @wintermute_t, @RockawayX, @SteakhouseFi and Flowdesk, with 900+ depositors so far.
JUST IN: Shielded | Q3 2026 is live.
Shielded is Zama's quarterly institutional report covering the state of confidential onchain finance.

If you like Zcash as a private store of value with an infinite TAM, you'll love ZAMA as the programmable privacy layer for all of onchain finance with a TAM as big as the entirety of global capital markets.
Trillions are coming. Trillions will be shielded.

A confidentiality protocol using Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) to enable private transfers, swaps and yield generation on public blockchains while preserving onchain verifiability.

Tough day for crypto -
The vaults curated by Bitwise do not have exposure to Binance and we have confirmed that the collateral assets that our curation strategies work with are not affected.
It appears that DeFi was relatively untouched though there is currently a flight to safety and liquidity is tight across many major lending markets.
We continue to monitor the situation.
Zama retweeted
Update on the reported Binance hot wallet incident.
Collateral: No collateral backing our vaults is affected. This includes Figure, OnRe, Huma, Avant, InfiniFi, Tori, Re, Obligate, f(x) and Coinshift and others across all chains.
Indirect exposure: Some of the protocols we allocate to hold positions in Ethena assets. Ethena’s potential exposure to Binance is below $10M and falls within the coverage of its insurance fund (over $60M).
Liquidity: Withdrawals from our vaults are operating normally. Some Morpho markets may see reduced liquidity and higher volatility in the near term.
We have been monitoring the situation closely since the first reports emerged, and our risk team will continue to monitoring positions diligently.
Zama retweeted
Binance is reported to have suffered a significant hot wallet hack. We have been monitoring since the first reports. Tether and Circle have frozen a significant amount of USDT and USDC linked to the incident. Ethena, Maple, mF-ONE, FalconX and other collateral issuers onboarded to Steakhouse vaults on all available chains have confirmed no impact. Our only indirect exposure is to Ethena, which has confirmed limited potential impact ($8.8M) via unrealized basis positions, fully covered by the reserve fund ($60M) in a worst-case scenario if there is a failure to realize.
Our systems have triggered, on a precautionary basis, to withdraw liquidity from a number of markets. We are reviewing these manually and will release throughout the next few hours.
The situation is fluid and may evolve rapidly. We will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as we receive them.

Builders in Nigeria : join @0xredman, @DefiPreacherr
and @Web3Bridge on November 6 for a hands-on session on confidential onchain finance powered by Zama. 🇳🇬
Zama is coming together with @Web3Bridge for a hands-on workshop on confidential onchain finance.
Public blockchains have made financial activity more open and verifiable, but they also expose information that should not always be public.
This workshop will explore how @zama is bringing confidentiality to onchain applications with FHE, and how builders can start creating applications where sensitive financial data stays encrypted while the blockchain remains verifiable.
We’ll cover the ideas behind confidential finance, look at how the Zama Protocol works, and move into a practical builder session.
📍 Web3Bridge, Nigeria
📅 6th November 2026
⏰ 10am - 1pm
Registration details: luma.com/rxse8qq7
More details soon.

Most institutions won't move serious capital onchain if every position is public.
Zama's Q3 report covers how that's getting solved, from confidential vaults to confidential swaps.
Andy and I are covering it Monday with a stacked lineup.
