Lowkie is submitted for @colosseum.
It’s been 5 weeks of learning, re-learning, and un-learning.
We have built a proof of concept; a confidential settlement infrastructure for institutional stablecoin flows that combines policy controls, reconciliation, and selective disclosure in one governed workflow.
Devnet is live.
Now we keep building.🫡

Nice argument bro, but what if there was a layer that sits on the blockchain that offers confidentiality, and voluntary selective disclosures.
A middleware that gives institutions total control, but allows them perform thier compliance responsibilities in a decentralized environment. Would that work, or what do you think?
I expect @x to integrate stable coin payments too tbh.
It take creators averagely 2-3 days to be able to cash in their pay from X. When payment should be instant and KYC’d.
Creators need confidential payment routes that will payout instantly without friction.@elonmusk say the word, and we are on mainnet in 1 month.
I just submitted our first grant application for @Lowkie_protocol, sponsored by @audd_digital.
Why this one?
Because $AUDD’s scope aligns closely with our long-term vision for Lowkie: real-world, business-facing, onchain settlement infrastructure.
If approved, we’ll use $AUDD as a pilot asset for the protocol and build toward confidential settlement workflows on Solana around a real stablecoin use case.
Appreciate @SuperteamEarn for the opportunity, LFG! 💪
Day 23 in the arena. @colosseum
Nobody tells you how much of building is just sitting with hard questions, definitely not the exciting ones; the ones that keep you up at night.
Are we solving the right problem? Is the architecture honest about what it does and doesn’t do? Would an actual compliance team trust this?
Lowkie’s devnet is live. The mechanics work. But institution-ready is a higher bar than devnet-ready, and that’s exactly where our heads are.
@yo_itsmatt Happy to see Solana supporting its ecosystem projects.
Matty, I’m building a Start-up on colosseum. Do you have a minute to give us honest feedback about our project from your POV, would be worth gold🙏
@timikareem@higgsfield Well for the value you get, they are affordable tbh. Any idea how much it would cost to shoot same video on conventional production?
Interesting read! @SimkinStepan
The quote below, blew my mind, as this is the exact gap I have seen during my research on institutional settlement with stablecoins. Thank you for validating my thoughts! I’m currently building something exciting for @colosseum. I’ll be in your DMs sir, kindly respond.
“Privacy. For trading and DeFi, public transaction histories weren't a dealbreaker. For businesses running real financial operations, they are. Competitive intelligence leakage is a real problem. The answer is selective disclosure - prove what needs to be proven without revealing everything else. The tech exists but isn't battle-tested yet. Adding privacy without compromising security is the challenge.”
The past 3 weeks has been inspiring.
We started off @colosseum as a privacy solution on solana dependent on CSPL, and then pivoted to an architecture that works today.
It has been a lot of iterating, hard conversations, and research to pivot the project toward a gap in the market we realized.
Today, I’m proud of my co-founders and commend their hard-work in shipping the first part of our protocol to Devnet - The confidential execution engine.
After joking and playing around earlier with test sols earlier today😂, we are back to shipping. Until we make it possible for institutions to comfortably settle on-chain while fulfilling all operational compliance responsibilities, WE WILL NOT REST.
More details about what we have on devnet, and what’s coming in the following weeks will be shared soon. Glowkie!
Devnet is live👾
This release is a proof of mechanics for only the confidential settlement engine on @solana.
The core protected execution flow is now testable. More institution-ready layers like policy controls and selective disclosure come next.

This is the right product at the right time @chandhok. You’ve solved the adoption barrier for institutions that want stablecoin settlement without touching crypto.
The next frontier is the institutions that do want to be on-chain directly, but need confidential execution, policy controls, and selective disclosure they govern themselves.
That’s the gap Lowkie fills. Composable, policy-gated confidential settlement for institutions that are ready to own the infrastructure.
Would love to connect, I think we’re building complementary layers of the same stack as Lowkie sits at the end of the path of the managed-to-composable journey that was described in the blog.
