What is Veilpay and how does it work?

Veilpay is a non-custodial crypto vault that uses EIP-5564 stealth addresses and zero-knowledge proofs to enable private payments across 7+ blockchains including Stellar, Monero, Zcash, Ethereum, Solana, Base, and Arbitrum. Your private keys never leave your device.

What are stealth addresses and how do they provide privacy?

Stealth addresses (EIP-5564) generate a unique, one-time address for every incoming transaction, breaking on-chain linkability. This ensures your public financial history remains private on transparent networks by preventing transaction tracing.

How do zero-knowledge proofs enhance privacy?

Zero-knowledge proofs allow us to mathematically verify that a payment is valid without ever revealing the sender, receiver, or transaction amount to the public ledger. Your transactions remain cryptographically private from end to end.

Is Veilpay non-custodial and does it require KYC?

Yes, Veilpay is fully non-custodial. Your private keys never leave your device, and no KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is required. You maintain complete control over your assets.

Which blockchain networks does Veilpay support?

Veilpay supports privacy-native assets like Stellar, Monero, and Zcash, alongside transparent chains including Ethereum, Solana, Base, Arbitrum, and others. All blockchains are integrated into a single unified interface.

Glossary

Chain key

A stable network identifier used by Veilpay, such as ethereum, base, solana, or stellar.

Encrypted note

Payment metadata encrypted for a recipient so memo content is not disclosed in plaintext.

Nullifier

A privacy-pool value used to prevent double-spending without revealing the original note.

RPC proxy

A backend route that forwards supported chain calls while keeping provider credentials server-side.

Self-custody

A wallet model where private keys and mnemonics stay on the user's device and are never sent to the backend.

SPP
