Protocol families

Three paths through the public record

Classic, Nova and governance have distinct designs, histories and risk profiles. Treat archived code and documentation as research material, not an assurance of current maintenance.

Classic

Fixed-denomination anonymity pools on Ethereum and compatible deployments, using commitments, Merkle trees and zk-SNARK withdrawals.

Nova

An experimental Gnosis Chain design supporting custom amounts and shielded transfers, with bridge and relayer limitations.

Governance

Public contracts, proposals and TORN voting. Classic pool contracts are described in the documentation as immutable and outside governance control.
