      Serious privacy starts with claims that anyone can inspect and challenge&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Shielded CSV: Private and Efficient Client-Side Validation was published as Cryptology ePrint 2025/068 by Jonas Nick, Liam Eagen and Robin Linus. It describes private client-side-validated token transfers secured by Bitcoin&amp;#39;s ordering and proof of work.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The zkCoins specification develops one concrete target design from that research, with explicit wire formats, custody boundaries, delivery, recovery and operating roles. It remains independent of any current implementation, so protocol claims and implementation evidence can be tested separately.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;For Bitcoiners, that separation is useful: inspect the construction, reproduce the vectors and evaluate real proofs and inscriptions on their own evidence.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/115dd81329c597abe6ca7407560e8f63a76c461aede390c96eaa6d204bb76796.jpg&#34;&gt;

    <content type="html">
      If a project promises Bitcoin privacy, ask exactly what is private — and whom you must trust&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The zkCoins target design keeps Bitcoin as the ordering and settlement layer. It needs no separate chain, native protocol token or Bitcoin consensus change. It supports creator-issued protocol assets.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Spend authority stays in the wallet. Publishers aggregate and anchor batches without receiving spend keys, and proof verification prevents an accepted forged transition. Because publishers are permissionless and replaceable, users can choose another if one delays or omits a record.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;That gives Bitcoiners a familiar model: verify correctness cryptographically, preserve self-custody and choose the infrastructure that supplies liveness.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/726abbce718b4c2777948d9f2a7bd4239e78f179be0ef2cc539f7a769905687d.jpg&#34;&gt;

    <content type="html">
      Bitcoin blockspace is public and scarce&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The zkCoins target design amortises one publisher batch across many private, client-validated spends. The current specification defines a constant 231-byte inscription payload per batch. Including the funding commit and reveal transaction, it estimates about 318 vBytes per batch — about 3.2 vBytes per spend when a batch contains 100 spends.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Hidden from chain-only observers: individual amounts, assets, senders, receivers, the transaction graph and even the batch record count. Still visible: the protocol marker and version, publisher key, accumulator roots, bundle locator, block anchor and signature.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Privacy through zero-knowledge proofs and client-side validation, anchored to Bitcoin without a consensus change.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/0b8d2977d4797c09e6292dd477454d08cd3773a353cd3cc9534e464014efc6ca.png&#34;&gt;

    <content type="html">
      Bitcoin payments are public by default.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;zkCoins is designed as a private client-side-validation payment layer anchored to Bitcoin — without changing Bitcoin consensus.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Amounts, assets, sender, receiver and the transaction graph stay off-chain. Zero-knowledge proofs establish validity, while a permissionless publisher anchors a whole batch of spends with a constant 231-byte inscription payload.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Bitcoin still sees protocol commitments and publisher metadata, but no individual payment amount or parties.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;No separate chain. No native protocol token. No soft fork.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The specification describes the target design. We are building and testing the implementation in public: &lt;a href=&#34;https://zkcoins.com&#34;&gt;https://zkcoins.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://image.nostr.build/698aa1d8db1e3c31448dbc19d0a0f2a65c529c6707e6f7a782cbcab13879e3fc.png&#34;&gt;
