Privacy is a requirement for the world’s finance to move on-chain. Banks, funds and stablecoin issuers cannot put balances, positions, NAV or client identity on a public chain, yet auditors, regulators and smart contracts still need to check that the data behind each tokenized asset was stored and processed as claimed.
zkDatabase does this with selective disclosure. Each party gets the answer to its query and a Zero-Knowledge Proof that the answer was computed correctly, while the raw data stays private and off-chain. The proof goes on-chain, where a smart contract verifies it.
For a fund, this means an auditor checks the one number they asked for, a lending protocol acts on collateral data it cannot read, and the client data behind both never leaves the database.
Today, stablecoin and tokenized asset issuers prove reserves with a periodic snapshot, and often have to show the data behind it. That leaves the time between reports unproven and exposes custodian and holder data to auditors.
With Zero-Knowledge Proof of Reserves on zkDatabase, an issuer proves that reserves cover every holder balance at every reserve update, and lenders and DeFi protocols check that proof on-chain between reports. This keeps reserves transparent to them and protects the privacy of that data.

Verifiable Data is the new standard for AI. Leading teams have started proving which model produced an answer while keeping the model’s weights private. Next comes the data the model reads, proven without being exposed, which is what zkDatabase does. https://t.co/WfX4OPeaVB
In our conversations with RWA teams this quarter, the question we heard most was how to keep sensitive data private while staying transparent with investors and auditors.
Our answer is Verifiable Data: the data stays private, and a Zero-Knowledge Proof shows it was stored and processed as claimed. Here is where it fits.
Thanks for a great week, Singapore. So many builders and partners stopped by the Orochi booth during @token2049, and it was good to hear how many of them care about privacy and verifiable data.
See you again soon!

Verifiable data will become the default expectation in every industry.
We build zkDatabase so that every insert, update and query comes with a Zero-Knowledge Proof. Anyone can check it was done correctly, while the raw data stays private and off-chain.

We spent a week at @token2049 Singapore. A few notes from the team:
Privacy came up in almost every conversation. Institutions and projects wanted to know how verifiable data fits into their industries, especially asset tokenization and zkKYC.
Our founder @Chiro8x spoke on practical privacy at the @StarkWareLtd Privacy Summit, from private payments to shielded assets.
Our takeaway: finance is becoming more programmable, and it needs infrastructure that is privacy-preserving, secure and ready for compliance.
A few moments from our @token2049 week in Singapore.
Thanks to everyone who visited our booth and joined our co-founder @Chiro8x at the Privacy Summit by @StarkWareLtd.
Now it's time to get back to building the world's first Verifiable Data Infrastructure 🫡
Title: Incremental Keyword Private Information Retrieval from d-ary Segmented Cuckoo Filters
Author: Bao Ninh (Orochi Network)
From the abstract:
We introduce RisePIR, the first preprocessing keyword private information retrieval (PIR) scheme that absorbs insert, update, and delete on its key-value store at a cost proportional to the number of mutations alone. We deploy RisePIR as a privacy-preserving eth_getBalance service over the 2.05 × 10⁸ accounts of Ethereum mainnet, so that a wallet reads a balance without revealing to its RPC provider which account it holds. The running service answers a private query in 0.69 s and absorbs each block's changes in 5.6 ms, well inside the 12 s block interval.
Orochi Network Research Paper Accepted at CANS 2026

Orochi Network, the First Verifiable Data Infrastructure, will be at @token2049 Singapore as a Silver Sponsor.
Teams building with Real-World Assets, stablecoins and agentic finance can find us at booth PB4-92 on 7-8 October.
See you there.
