Paraloom

Paraloom is a privacy-focused Layer 2 solution for Solana using zkSNARK (Groth16) shielded transactions and distributed compute. The project launched in March 2025 (<4 months old) with a working devnet, permissionless validator registration (21 validators already running on commodity hardware), and a live app for private swaps. Recent updates show rapid technical progress: on-chain proof verification, NAT traversal for home validators, trusted setup ceremony planned, and integration with Jupiter for shielded DEX swaps. The team operates with no VC backing and full transparency (open GitHub, public security reviews).

Paraloom is a privacy-focused Layer 2 solution for Solana using zkSNARK (Groth16) shielded transactions and distributed compute.

The project launched in March 2025 (<4 months old) with a working devnet, permissionless validator registration (21 validators already running on commodity hardware), and a live app for private swaps.

Recent updates show rapid technical progress: on-chain proof verification, NAT traversal for home validators, trusted setup ceremony planned, and integration with Jupiter for shielded DEX swaps.

The team operates with no VC backing and full transparency (open GitHub, public security reviews).

Green flags: Working devnet with live app (app.paraloom.io) and 21 independent validators already operational · Technical substance: Groth16 zkSNARKs, BFT validator quorum, on-chain proof verification shipped, NAT traversal implemented · Genuinely early-stage: account <4 months old, 1.3k followers, pre-mainnet, bootstrapped with no VC backing · Open development: public GitHub (paraloom-labs/paraloom-core), transparent security reviews, documented progress updates · Low hardware barrier (runs on laptops/RPis) with permissionless validator registration already live

Red flags: No token yet despite active development (potential future monetization model unclear beyond validator fees) · Very small community (1.3k followers) creates limited network effects and scrutiny compared to established privacy projects · Pre-mainnet status means security assumptions not yet battle-tested in production environment

Your token deserves the spotlight. Your wallet doesn’t. A first look at Paraloom the privacy launchpad we’re building. Create. Launch. Trade. More soon. https://t.co/eHArfWL1WF

Where Paraloom goes next. The shielded pool and private swaps already work, and a live bug bounty keeps hardening them in the open. That is pillar one: private money. Pillar two is the bigger bet. Confidential compute. Private inference where the worker runs your job inside a sealed enclave and never sees your prompt, paid on-chain. Private money and private compute are the two rails an agent economy actually needs. And none of it stays locked to one chain. The proofs use BN254, which EVM chains verify natively, so the same privacy layer is portable beyond Solana by design. The target is a validator set that keeps running without depending on the people who built it. And we are not playing small. Paraloom has applied to one of the largest global funds in crypto and AI. Private money, private compute, no single point of control.

On any DEX your swap is public. Anyone can see you sold USDC for SOL, the amounts, and the addresses on both sides. Paraloom makes the swap itself private. In this clip I swap USDC to SOL, then withdraw the SOL to a fresh address. Nothing on-chain connects the two sides, or either side to my wallet. The trade still fills on real Jupiter liquidity. It just exits and re-enters through the shielded pool, so the public record only ever shows an anonymous address trading, and the operator that settles it sees ciphertext. Live on Solana mainnet today. Capped beta: 5 SOL pool limit, small amounts, still early. Try it: https://t.co/3fvZ6EPVWw Verify the program yourself: 8gPsRSm1CAw38mfzc1bcLMUXyFN7LnS8k6CV5hPUTWrP

Private buys are live on Paraloom. Spend a shielded SOL note, exit at a fresh address that shares no signer with your deposit, and swap on Jupiter. The token lands at an unlinkable address, so the chain never ties the trade back to your wallet. The withdraw settles through the validator quorum and finalizes on mainnet. Try it at https://t.co/LDKxHas8Id, Private mode. Needs the Paraloom wallet extension.
