ZMOY Architecture Overview

Our Approach

Current blockchains face a trade-off between transparency and privacy. Public ledgers expose too much information for regulated environments, while privacy coins often lack compliance and long-term security.

ZMOY addresses these limitations through a privacy-first Layer-1 design that embeds compliance and cryptographic agility at the protocol level.

Our architecture is built on four key principles:

Privacy by default

Transaction data and ownership remain confidential by design

Configurable compliance

Optional, scoped auditability enables lawful transparency without exposing unrelated data.

Post-quantum security

Built on NIST-approved algorithms, including Dilithium and Kyber, to ensure long-term resilience.

Modular and upgradeable design

Allows seamless evolution of cryptography and protocol features without breaking the network.

This approach combines regulatory readiness with enduring security, creating a blockchain foundation built to last.

ZMOY Team

Silicon Valley-Based Engineering Leadership
The ZMOY team is composed of experienced technologists based in the Silicon Valley, California area. Together, we bring decades of experience designing, scaling, and securing software systems that support some of the world's most demanding platforms. Our background includes work at leading technology companies such as Salesforce, Microsoft, Meta, and many others, where team members built and maintained infrastructure serving hundreds of millions, and in some cases billions, of users.

Enterprise-Grade Security and Compliance
Our engineers have deep experience in enterprise environments and understand the challenges large organizations face around data protection, compliance, and system reliability. Several team members have worked closely with financial institutions and understand the importance of privacy in transactional systems as well as the regulatory frameworks that govern them.

A Rare Blend of Enterprise and Systems Engineering
The team also includes specialists with strong expertise in low-level systems, optimization, and performance tuning. This combination of enterprise experience and technical depth gives ZMOY the precision and discipline required to deliver a privacy-first blockchain built for scale and long-term success.

Roadmap

A Comprehensive Roadmap to Building the ZMOY Network and Advancing Decentralized Privacy

June 2025 - POC Completed

01

A working blockchain prototype proved ZMOY's post-quantum security and private transaction layer. It validated node communication, block creation, and early wallet interactions, forming the foundation for the network's core cryptography.

March 2026 - Internal MVP

02

The internal MVP will deliver the first full version of ZMOY's blockchain and wallet stack. Core features such as staking logic, validator setup, and transaction privacy will run in a controlled test environment. This phase focuses on stability, telemetry, and preparing for limited external access.

May 2026 - Private Testnet I

03

A closed private testnet will launch to verify network performance and wallet reliability. Testers will validate staking rewards, peer-to-peer synchronization, and block timing under live conditions. Key metrics and telemetry will guide optimization before the next expansion phase.

July 2026 - Private Testnet II

04

The network expands to a broader group of testers with most features active. Wallet staking, token transfers, and reward cycles are fully functional, and a light bug-bounty program begins. Security monitoring and validator onboarding prepare the system for public testing.

Fall 2026 - Public Testnet

05

A limited public testnet opens ZMOY to community participation. Public nodes, staking dashboards, and wallet apps allow users to explore private transactions. Third-party audits and stress testing ensure readiness for the mainnet release.

Spring 2028 - Mainnet Launch

06

ZMOY's decentralized mainnet goes live with secure staking, governance, and wallet support. Genesis tokens are distributed, reward cycles begin, and node operators can join the network openly. This milestone marks the start of a scalable, privacy-first blockchain ecosystem.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Many blockchains force a trade-off between transparency and confidentiality, limiting adoption in regulated markets. ZMOY provides privacy-by-default transactions with optional, scoped auditability, enabling secure value transfer while meeting compliance needs. This positioning helps unlock real commercial use cases that are unreachable with public ledger models.
ZMOY is a Layer 1 network built from the ground up with a privacy-first architecture, not an L2 or fork. It combines default confidential transactions with selective transparency for compliance, a capability few others support natively. Its design reduces observable network surface while giving regulated entities the tools they need to operate without violating the law.
All transaction details, including amounts, balances, and counterparties, remain cryptographically hidden by default. There is no globally visible public address graph or permanent transaction history available to the general network. This offers privacy without the risks of traditional public blockchains such as address tracking or retroactive deanonymization.
ZMOY powers privacy-preserving financial and data applications suited for regulated markets. Examples include confidential DeFi protocols that keep transaction amounts hidden yet auditable, private peer-to-peer payments, and encrypted on-chain messaging. It also supports identity systems that verify attributes without revealing personal data, and enterprise uses such as supply-chain tracking or compliant asset transfers requiring selective audit access.
ZMOY uses NIST-approved post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, including Dilithium signatures and Kyber encryption, for long-term security. These standards are internationally vetted and designed to resist both classical and quantum attacks. The protocol’s modular cryptography allows seamless upgrades as new standards evolve without disrupting the ecosystem.
The ZMOY token enables transaction fee settlement, staking rewards, and governance participation across the network. Token mechanics are designed to balance long-term network health, validator incentives, and community alignment. A full tokenomics breakdown will be shared ahead of the public testnet for transparency and due diligence.
ZMOY's core team is based in Silicon Valley and includes engineers with decades of experience at major technology companies. Team members have built and scaled platforms used by hundreds of millions to billions of users at firms such as Meta, Microsoft, and Salesforce. This deep expertise in privacy, distributed systems, and enterprise adoption strengthens ZMOY’s execution credibility.
Once the protocol stabilizes, the ecosystem will support a full application layer for wallets, identity, messenger hooks, and confidential applications. Developers will be able to build on ZMOY with tools and documentation that abstract the cryptographic complexity. This approach encourages real-world adoption while preserving the network's privacy and compliance guarantees.
