Ethereum's transparency is a good feature, but they doesn't fit to some use cases -- e.g., Payroll, treasury operations, vendor payments, personal holdings. Teams that actually move money onchain have been asking for privacy for years, and the existing answers all come with a catch. Some bring regulatory baggage, some tech is slow and expensive, or some requires custody trade-offs. Privacy Boost is our answer: a self-custodial private transfer protocol built for real treasury operations and trading. Under the hood it combines ZK with a TEE-accelerated proving over a UTXO. This allows sub-500ms proof generation and under 90k gas per transfer. We provide the protocol with web application and SDK. Compliance is also built-in. Viewing keys give auditors read access on your terms, and compliance APIs plus programmable controls let institutions meet their obligations without trusting an intermediary. We'll walk through the architecture, trust model, and failure modes.
