Zeeve Introduces Privacy Layer for Institutional Blockchain Confidentiality
Irvine, CA, USA, March 24th, 2026, Chainwire
Zeeve has launched the Zeeve Privacy Layer, a modular EVM-compatible privacy stack designed to enable cryptographic confidentiality and regulator-ready transparency across enterprise and public blockchain networks.
Financial institutions are shifting from simple blockchain pilots to production-grade tokenization and settlement use cases. However, there remains a lack of systematic, enforceable confidentiality across on-chain operations.
Permissioned networks guard the network perimeter but do not protect the data layer. Details such as transaction values and identity metadata can remain visible.
The Zeeve Privacy Layer is designed to address this limitation by providing a modular privacy stack that introduces confidentiality controls across multiple layers of blockchain infrastructure.
“Institutions operating on shared ledger infrastructure face a structural confidentiality problem that permissioning alone does not resolve,” said Dr. Ravi Chamria, CEO of Zeeve. “Zeeve Privacy Layer provides a composable architecture that enables institutions to enforce bank-grade confidentiality without compromising on governance, auditability, or regulatory compliance.”
Zeeve Privacy Layer Covers Six Layers of Security
Institutional confidentiality cannot be addressed at a single point in the stack. It must be built across every surface where data is generated, stored, or queried.
The Zeeve Privacy Layer addresses six specific surfaces:
- Confidential Asset Transfers: This layer is a shielded model. It uses cryptographic commitments, nullifiers, and zero-knowledge validation. This technique stops transaction graph analysis.
- Private Smart Contract Execution: This feature extends privacy to the workflow state. It hides RFQ terms, netting rules, and settlement instructions. It also protects collateral logic. Only authorized participants have access to private payloads. The public ledger records only a cryptographic commitment.
- Notary-Governed Tokens: Compliance validation is embedded into the asset itself. Every transfer requires allowlist verification and multi-notary approval.
- Identity and Eligibility Proofs: Credential-based proofs enable validation of roles or jurisdictions without placing Personally Identifiable Information (PII) on-chain.
- RPC Boundary Policy Enforcement: Audit trails and filtering are applied at the RPC layer, addressing a common security gap in blockchain infrastructure.
- Institution-Scoped Observability: Public explorers are replaced with a private operations console that provides shielded balance reconstruction and tenant isolation.
Institutions can integrate each layer independently. They can use specific components for targeted workloads or deploy the full stack.
Institutional Application and Deployment of Zeeve Privacy Layer
Zeeve Privacy Layer supports production workflows. It solves confidentiality issues in a confidential DvP settlement and tokenized deposit issuance. It also works for bond allocation, interbank wholesale payments, repo, and trade finance.
The platform is infrastructure-agnostic and EVM-compatible. It connects to permissioned consortium ledgers, private L1 environments, enterprise rollups, and public systems anchored by ZK rollups.
The system handles regulatory requirements through selective disclosure. It uses viewing-key models. These models allow for access that is transaction-scoped, time-bounded, and role-bounded. Auditors and regulators receive exact visibility under policy. Disclosure operates under explicit governance and never as an override.
“Every component in this architecture addresses a specific point of failure we have observed in institutional blockchain deployments,” said Ghan Vashistha, CTO of Zeeve. “Privacy Layer consolidates those requirements into a unified, composable stack that allows institutions to move confidential financial operations on-chain with the same level of information governance they maintain in traditional infrastructure.”
Zeeve will introduce the Privacy Layer in three phases. The rollout begins with confidential assets and access controls. It will then expand to cover private workflows, observability, identity, and disclosure governance.
