ZK Rollup Bridge

Move assets privately
across chains.

CipherSpan bridges Zcash, Orchid, and Solana through zero-knowledge rollup verification. Your transactions stay shielded. End to end.

The bridge problem

2

Only two bridges connect Zcash and Solana today. Neither preserves privacy during the transfer.

$2B+

Lost to bridge exploits since 2021. Trusted validators are the weakest link in cross-chain security.

0

Bridges combine ZK verification with privacy-network relay routing. The intersection is completely unserved.

How CipherSpan works

01

ZK Rollup Verification

Transactions are batched off-chain and verified with zk-SNARK proofs. No trusted validators. Math replaces trust.

02

Shielded Transit

Assets move between Zcash's shielded pool and Solana's DeFi ecosystem without ever exposing sender, receiver, or amount.

03

Orchid Relay Routing

Bridge relay nodes route through Orchid's decentralized bandwidth network. Multi-hop privacy means no single node sees the full picture.

Three protocols. One bridge.

Each layer was chosen because it solves a specific failure mode in existing bridge architecture.

Zcash

zk-SNARKs for shielded transactions. The most battle-tested privacy cryptography in production since 2016.

Orchid

Decentralized bandwidth marketplace with multi-hop routing. Privacy for the transport layer, not just the transaction.

Solana

400ms block times. Sub-cent fees. The execution environment where speed meets DeFi liquidity.

Privacy is not a feature.
It's the architecture.

Every layer of CipherSpan is designed so that privacy is the default, not the option. From shielded transactions to relay routing to ZK verification, there is no point in the bridge where your data is exposed. This is what trustless actually means.
