Someone receiving aid in a displaced community. A small business paying vendors. A freelancer accepting stablecoin payments. A family transferring money across borders.
None of those people need their financial activity on a public ledger. Shield was built for them.
🌐 Announcing Aleo Stack v4.7.0
A release focused on making Aleo easier to run, easier to observe, and easier to build on.
✅ View-only functions in Leo
✅ Real-time data streaming
✅ 30-50% client-side proving speedup
Let's dive in 👇
Privacy is having its moment in crypto. Hardware wallets, stablecoins, and major chains are all moving toward confidential transactions, and the case for private finance keeps getting stronger.
Shield was built for exactly this.
Private stablecoins and private transactions, available to everyday users on @AleoHQ.
Migrating from Leo to Shield is not a process you need to plan around.
Open Shield, import your seed phrase, and your accounts and balances are there. No bridging, no token swaps, no waiting.
Shield is where all new development is happening, and the migration is open right now. The thread below has everything you need.
Leo Wallet is being deprecated. Shield is what comes next 🛡️
Provable acquired Leo Wallet in 2025, and since then, the team has been building Shield as the primary wallet for Aleo.
Shield is now live on iOS, Android, and Chrome and migrating is simple.
When one of the most trusted names in hardware wallets supports shielded transactions, it signals a real shift in where private crypto is heading 🛡️
This is what privacy infrastructure looks like when it stops being a niche conversation.
Built by @AleoHQ, secured by @Ledger.
Keeping eyes away from your transactions never felt so easy.
@AleoHQ brings public and private transaction capability, and the Ledger signer secures the keys that make it real. The ultimate duo for managing your digital assets natively in the Ledger Wallet™ app.
True digital ownership. Free from compromise 🔐

Hardware wallet security and zero-knowledge privacy used to live in separate worlds.
Today they don't.
A significant moment for private crypto, made possible by @AleoHQ and @Ledger.
Aleo is the first blockchain to support shielded transactions on @Ledger 🛡️
For years, this gap has been an open problem.
Hardware wallets were originally built for transparent chains, not private execution.
Shielded transactions require generating zero-knowledge proofs over private state, a fundamentally different signing flow.
After working closely with Ledger to adapt their architecture this feature is now live.
Available across 7M+ devices.
Until now, hardware wallets secured keys, but not privacy. This created new risks for large holders by exposing balances and activity.
That tradeoff is gone.
"At Ledger, our foundation is built on uncompromising security. This partnership with Aleo represents a pivotal moment, merging our hardware-based security with their zero-knowledge cryptography."
— @P3b7_, CTO, Ledger

This isn't a roadmap item or a future promise.
USDCx and USAD are live in Shield right now, and Shield is the only wallet where you can hold, send, and receive them on Aleo.
Bring your dollars onchain, privately.

Stablecoins are how most people actually use crypto day to day.
Think payments, savings, and transfers. But on public chains, every one of those transactions is visible to anyone.
Your balance, who you're paying, how much, and how often is permanently on display.
USDCx and USAD on @AleoHQ were built to solve this.
Both are dollar-pegged, backed by regulated reserves, and encrypt your transaction data using zero-knowledge proofs.
The stability of a dollar-denominated asset with the privacy your financial activity deserves. That's what Shield and Aleo make possible.
Here's a quick reminder for any Leo Wallet users who haven't migrated yet.
Shield is live, the migration takes less than two minutes, and your accounts and balances carry over automatically.
