ZEclipse Overview

ZEclipse is an advanced privacy layer for Solana that provides fully private, untraceable transactions while preserving Solana's speed and low fees.

What ZEclipse Does​

  • Breaks transaction graph linkability using a 4-hop multi-path routing system with real and fake splits per hop.
  • Hides sensitive data (amounts, sender, recipient, relationships) using Zero-Knowledge Proofs (HyperPlonk, range proofs, Merkle proofs) and Poseidon hashing.
  • Defends against timing analysis with temporal obfuscation strategies that randomize execution time and distribution.
  • Stays efficient via optimized account/rent handling, batching, and compute budget tuning.

High-Level Architecture​

  • On-chain program (programs/zeclipse): Anchor-based Solana program implementing the hop execution, proof verification, and finalization logic.
  • TypeScript SDK (app/): Client library and CLI providing connectors, temporal obfuscation, and developer-facing APIs.
  • Poseidon tooling (poseidon/, tools/): Hash function implementation, validators, and benchmarks used by the ZK pipeline.
  • Verification (verification/): Formal specs and verification helpers (e.g. Bloom filter specification).
