Fellow Panthers,  Welcome to our September recap—an exciting month of growth for Panther. From major crypto events to new partnerships and significant product development progress, we saw significant momentum.  Tech updates:  On the heels of Stage 7, which introduced key features like test swaps and data escrow, the Panther

Panther Protocol will provide private access to DeFi while providing access to compliance tools supporting the new frontier of on-chain finance. Last month, Panther Ventures’ Head of Product, Saif Akhtar, and Chief Architect, Vadim Konstantinov presented the protocol’s latest vision for secure and private decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem at

Even when using open and permissionless blockchains, some things are best left private Polarizing views Surveys like the Edelman Trust Barometer reveal increasing polarization, particularly on social and political issues, with many participants expressing reluctance to collaborate with those who hold opposing views. At the same time, as crypto donations

A recent article by Wired underscores the alarming rise in physical threats and violence used to coerce individuals into transferring their valuable digital assets to criminal accounts. When malicious actors can link a digital wallet to its owner, high-net-worth individuals become prime targets for theft, market manipulation, and identity fraud.

Abstract This article examines Panther Protocol, an upcoming decentralized application on the Polygon network that leverages zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) technology within a Multi-Asset Shielded Pool (MASP) to facilitate private asset transactions. Inspired by Muhammad Yusuf's "Diving Into Dark Pools," this article explores Panther Protocol's

Before we announce the exciting new features available for testing in Stage 7, we want to extend our gratitude to our community of over 3,500 testnet users. Your diligent testing and valuable feedback are critical to our mission. We are pleased to share that testing for Stage 6 is

Privacy is critical for institutional crypto traders. Trades on public blockchains expose institutions to risks, including strategy theft, front-running, and MEV bots. Dark pools offer institutions a promising way to execute large trades privately. However, their adoption has been slow. One major issue is the association between Privacy Enhancing Technology

Proprietary investment strategies have always been among the most closely guarded secrets in finance. Traditionally, these strategies were protected by the nature of how trades are transacted, giving brokers and financial institutions the ability to leverage their proprietary strategies to their advantage. The rise of blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi)

Fellow Panthers, First and foremost, thank you to the community of over 3000 testnet users who have been testing and sharing valuable feedback. Your continued support and patience are critically important to our mission. Testnet Stage 5 is now complete, and it provided us with valuable insights, resulting in several

This article explores the critical role of Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) and other advanced privacy tools in safeguarding user privacy within the burgeoning Web3 landscape, addressing the inherent transparency of blockchain technology and introducing next-generation solutions for scalable, privacy-focused blockchain applications.  Although blockchain’s benefits are undeniable, the decentralized and immutable

Did you miss Panther co-founder and CEO Oliver Gale’s presentation at last week’s ETHDam conference? Don’t worry, we have you covered.  The session, “Alpha Protection Through Privacy: A Web3 privacy primitive for DeFi,” explored the $2.6T problem of open blockchain privacy and Panther Protocol’s solution.

Anish Mohammed, Co-Founder, CTO, and Chief Scientist at Panther Protocol, recently joined Meher Roy on the Epicenter Podcast. They discussed Anish’s journey into crypto, the genesis of Panther Protocol, how Panther will preserve the privacy of its users, what’s coming in its Mainnet launch, and its mission to

As the adoption of blockchain-based payment surges, the need for on-chain privacy is capturing the spotlight. Privacy is particularly important for institutional users and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs). And, the problem is that any public, pseudonymous blockchain reveals transaction details.  From wallet addresses, to gas fees, to transaction value, and the

As transparent Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) pilots continue to gain traction, on-chain privacy has exploded into one of the polarizing issues in the Web3 industry. However, as is the nature of polarizing extremes, neither absolute transparency nor absolute privacy will serve users' real-world needs. In fact, the privacy

Following the recent listing of $ZKP on BitMart, Panther's CEO, Oliver Gale, introduced Panther Protocol to BitMart's community. This post provides a summary of the conversation. Firstly, let's quickly revisit the BitMart:Panther partnership. BitMart:Panther partnership In December 2023, Panther Protocol's

Fellow Panthers, As we bid farewell to 2023, we wanted to provide a year-end update on our progress and what we have been working on behind the scenes. For Panther, it’s been a year filled with major tech developments, events, team additions, and preparations for our V1 launch in

Protecting users from total transparency is crucial for addressing one of the main hurdles facing DeFi adoption: data privacy. In a system where blockchain transparency can be maliciously exploited, alpha decay and surveillance are inevitable, making the current state of decentralized finance incompatible with traditional services. As such, addressing our

Different approaches to private asset velocity in light of the Privacy Pools paper. Introduction Public blockchains inherently champion transparency. The cornerstone of this architecture allows anyone to validate transactions without dependence on centralized intermediaries. This transparency, while advantageous in many respects, also accentuates the pressing need for privacy, especially given
