Svmuu News: The XRP Ledger has announced an integration with zero-knowledge infrastructure provider Boundless to enable banks and asset management firms to execute transactions on the public blockchain that are both privacy-preserving and compliant. According to the announcement, the solution can conceal sensitive information such as transaction size, frequency, and counterparties, while still allowing regulators to conduct audits through selective disclosure and role-based access control, thereby striking a balance between privacy and compliance. This integration will support institutional-grade use cases such as cross-border B2B payments, treasury and capital management, over-the-counter (OTC) trading, tokenized asset issuance, and on-chain trading and lending. Industry experts believe that the tension between public blockchain transparency and privacy requirements has long been a major barrier to institutional adoption, and this solution aims to reduce the so-called “transparency tax.” Meanwhile, competition in the privacy sector continues to intensify. Technological approaches such as zero-knowledge proofs (ZK) and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) are accelerating their implementation, driving privacy capabilities from optional features toward foundational infrastructure. Data shows that the market size for tokenized assets has reached approximately $29.25 billion, with a monthly growth rate of about 7.9%. (Cointelegraph)
