They are designed to make it easier for exchanges, bridges and DeFi platforms to connect with Zano, while regular users can continue using Zano’s private addresses.
Simply put: easier integrations without changing Zano’s privacy-first experience.
3. Zano Opens the Door to DeFi
HF6 also prepares native ZANO for cross-chain access through Bridgeless.
This could allow ZANO to connect with public blockchain liquidity and DeFi services, while users can bridge back to the Zano network when native privacy is needed.
4. What Happens Next?
The idea behind HF6 is simple:
Keep Zano private at its core. Make it easier to connect with the wider crypto world.
With the activation block approaching, Hard Fork 6 could be an important step in Zano’s push toward wider utility.

Hard Fork 6, also known as HF6, is one of Zano’s biggest network upgrades.
The upgrade introduces Gateway Addresses, a new address type designed for exchanges, bridges and decentralized exchanges.
More importantly, Gateway Addresses open the path for native ZANO to move across supported blockchains through Bridgeless.
HF6 is set to activate at block 3,833,000, currently expected between August 25 and 27, 2026.
2. Option One: ZANO to wZANO
The first direction is for existing ZANO users.
A user could bridge native $ZANO out of the private Zano network and receive $wZANO on a supported public blockchain.
Why would someone do this?
The answer is DeFi.
$wZANO could potentially be used in liquidity pools, lending platforms and other blockchain services on supported networks.
This gives $ZANO holders a way to access deeper public-chain liquidity and DeFi opportunities that do not exist directly on Zano’s privacy-focused base layer.
The second direction may be even easier to understand.
Zano’s rollout plan includes bringing wZANO to Base. According to Zano, tokens in the Base ecosystem can be purchased with fiat through the Coinbase app.
This could create a simpler route for new users to enter the Zano ecosystem.
A user could buy $wZANO, move it to a supported wallet and bridge it back to native $ZANO.
Once back on Zano, the user returns to Zano’s native privacy environment.
The new system is designed to lock native $ZANO in Gateway Addresses and mint an equal amount of $wZANO on the destination chain. When $wZANO returns, it is burned and the native $ZANO is unlocked. Each $wZANO is designed to be backed 1:1 by native $ZANO.
5. Two Directions, Two Different Use Cases
This is where Zano’s question becomes interesting.
One group may want more utility.
They already own ZANO and want access to DeFi, liquidity and services on public blockchains.
Another group may want more privacy.
They may start with fiat or $wZANO and use bridging as a route into native $ZANO.
One direction moves from privacy to public-chain utility.
The other moves from public-chain access to privacy.
Zano is trying to connect both worlds.
6. What Comes Next for Zano
Hard Fork 6 is not simply about moving tokens between blockchains.
It could make ZANO easier for exchanges, bridges and other crypto services to integrate while leaving standard private Zano addresses unchanged.
The updated Zano wallet is already available, while HF6 is expected to activate between August 25 and 27, 2026. Bridgeless itself is still early-stage and continuing to mature.
The bigger question may no longer be whether users choose privacy or utility.

Privacy and liquidity do not always work well together in crypto.
Privacy-focused blockchains can protect users, but limited access to major DeFi platforms, exchanges and public blockchain liquidity can make their assets harder to use.
Zano’s Bridgeless update is designed to tackle this problem with a simple idea:
Keep privacy where it matters. Let liquidity move where it is useful.
A recent post from House of Chimera on X highlighted how native $ZANO can remain on Zano’s privacy-focused blockchain while wrapped ZANO, or wZANO, moves across supported public networks.
But the wider crypto world runs across many different blockchains and DeFi ecosystems.
The Bridgeless integration aims to connect these two worlds.
Native $ZANO can be locked on the Zano blockchain through Gateway Addresses. An equal amount of wZANO can then be created on supported public networks such as EVM chains, TON and Solana.
The idea is simple:
$ZANO stays native to its privacy network. wZANO travels.
2. How Does ZANO Move Across Chains?
The process works in a few steps.
Native $ZANO is first locked in a Gateway Address on the Zano blockchain.
The protocol then mints the same amount of wZANO on the supported destination chain.
For example, if ZANO is bridged out, the corresponding wZANO is backed 1:1 by native $ZANO.
When a user bridges back, the wZANO is burned and the native $ZANO is unlocked. Zano says the system uses Threshold Signatures so no single validator holds the complete key needed to control a transfer.
3. What Is wZANO?
wZANO is a wrapped version of ZANO designed to work on other blockchains.
Think of it as a version of ZANO that can enter public blockchain ecosystems.
This could allow wZANO to interact with DeFi services, liquidity pools and other blockchain applications that native $ZANO cannot directly access on the Zano network.
wZANO is visible when used on transparent public blockchains.
4. Why Liquidity Matters for Zano
Liquidity simply means how easily an asset can be bought, sold or traded.
More liquidity can mean easier trading and access to a wider range of crypto services.
By moving wZANO across supported public networks, ZANO could gain access to deeper liquidity and higher trading activity.
The House of Chimera described the result as private settlement on Zano combined with public-chain liquidity and utility elsewhere.
This could help Zano avoid a common problem:
A private blockchain with an asset that is difficult to access or trade.
5. What Happens to Privacy?
This is important to understand.
Zano’s privacy does not automatically move with wZANO to public blockchains.
When wZANO is used on transparent networks such as EVM chains, TON or Solana, balances and transactions can be publicly visible.
If privacy is needed, users can bridge back to native $ZANO, where Zano’s privacy protections apply again.
In simple terms:
Bridge out for liquidity and wider utility.
Bridge back for Zano’s native privacy.
6. Why This Could Open More Doors for ZANO
Zano says the infrastructure could give ZANO new access to DeFi liquidity pools and potentially make the asset easier to integrate with larger exchanges and services.
As a wrapped asset on public chains, wZANO can potentially interact with lending protocols, liquidity pools and other DeFi applications.
This does not guarantee exchange listings or adoption.
But it removes some of the technical barriers that have limited how native privacy assets interact with the wider crypto ecosystem.
7. Privacy When You Need It. Liquidity When You Want It.
The most interesting part of the Bridgeless update may be its simplicity.
Zano does not need to turn its private blockchain into a public one.
Instead, native $ZANO can remain within Zano’s privacy ecosystem while wZANO connects with public blockchain liquidity.
Privacy on Zano.
Liquidity across chains.
Maybe the future of privacy crypto is not choosing one or the other.

Neither should security, controlling your own money, or sending a transaction without asking for permission.
That is the simple message behind a recent X post from Eléonore Blanc, reposted by Zano:
“Privacy is Common S3nse. Security is Common S3nse. Permissionless is Common S3nse. Censorship Resistance is Common S3nse. Self custody is Common S3nse.”
It is a short message, but it asks an important question:
Should financial privacy be a special feature, or something we simply expect?
Privacy, security and control over your own money should not feel unusual.
They should be normal.
2. Why Financial Privacy Matters
Imagine if anyone could see your bank balance and payment history.
Who you paid.
How much you sent.
When you sent it.
That would feel uncomfortable.
Yet many public blockchains allow transaction activity to be viewed through blockchain explorers.
Zano takes a different approach.
Zano is a privacy-focused blockchain where transactions are private by default. The goal is simple: your financial activity should remain your business.
3. What Is Self-Custody?
Self-custody means you control your crypto.
Instead of a bank or company holding your assets, you control your wallet and private keys.
This gives users more control, but also more responsibility.
Your keys.
Your wallet.
Your assets.
4. What Does Permissionless Mean?
Permissionless simply means you do not need approval from a company or bank to use the network.
There is no application form.
No opening hours.
No person deciding whether you are allowed to participate.
You can interact with the blockchain according to the network’s rules.
5. Understanding Censorship Resistance
Censorship resistance means making it difficult for one company or authority to simply stop a valid transaction.
Why does that matter?
Because owning money is one thing.
Being able to use it is another.
This idea has always been an important part of cryptocurrency.
6. Where Zano Fits In
Zano is building privacy directly into its blockchain.
Transactions are private by default.
Its Confidential Assets technology also allows private digital assets to be created and used on the Zano network.
The bigger idea is easy to understand:
Privacy is not an extra button you turn on. It is part of the system.
That is what makes Zano’s approach interesting.
7. Maybe Privacy Is Just Common Sense
We use passwords to protect our emails.
We lock our phones.
We close our curtains.
So why should our financial activity be completely public?
Privacy does not always mean someone has something to hide.
Sometimes, it simply means having control over what you choose to share.

Zano has launched a new official support page, giving users a safer and more direct way to get help with wallets, technical problems, and other Zano-related issues.
The move comes as the Zano team warns of a rise in scam and impersonation attempts targeting crypto users. Technical and wallet support will no longer be handled through Telegram or Discord, with users instead directed to the official Zano support system.
Crypto support scams are becoming a serious problem, particularly when users publicly ask for help with wallet issues.
Scammers may impersonate project team members or support staff and contact users directly. Zano’s new support page creates one clear place for users to start when they need help.
According to Zano, the official support page is the place to get assistance involving a wallet or funds. The team says it will respond to submitted tickets by email.
2. What Can You Contact Zano Support About?
The new support system allows users to select the category that best matches their issue:
General support
Wallet help
Technical issues
Scam or impersonation reports
Partnership or business enquiries
The support page also provides quick access to common topics including locked or pending balances, staking and rewards, wallet creation or restoration, log files, download verification, and Zano Trade help.
Simply enter your name and email address, choose the correct support category, add a subject, and explain the issue.
The Zano team will then reply by email.
Important: Never include your seed phrase, private keys, or wallet password in a support ticket. Zano states that its team will never ask for this information.
4. Zano Support Is Moving Away From Telegram and Discord
Due to increased scam attempts, Zano says technical and wallet support will no longer be provided through Telegram or Discord.
These community channels may still be used for simple questions, but anything involving a wallet or funds should go through the official support page. Zano’s support page also describes Telegram and Discord community chats as unofficial and says they are run by the community rather than the development team.
This change gives users a clearer support route and reduces the risk of accidentally dealing with an impersonator.
5. Important Zano Scam Warning
Zano has issued a very clear warning:
The Zano team will never DM you first.
The team will also never ask for your:
Seed phrase
Private keys
Wallet password
If someone contacts you on Telegram, Discord, X, or another platform claiming to be Zano support and offering help with your wallet or funds, treat it as a scam.
Zano’s official announcement states that users should always begin through the official support page.
Never share your seed phrase or private keys with anyone. Be especially cautious of unsolicited messages from people claiming to be support staff.
For technical and wallet assistance, users can also email the official support address listed on Zano’s support page. Partnership, listing, integration, and media enquiries have a separate official contact.
Disclaimer: ZanoNews.com is an independent news and information website. Always verify links through official Zano channels and never share your seed phrase, private keys, or wallet password with anyone.
For years, crypto users have had to make a choice:
Use Ethereum and access DeFi, but give up your privacy.
Use a privacy blockchain, but lose access to many DeFi opportunities.
Zano is helping remove that trade-off.
Using Bridgeless, users can now move Ethereum (ETH) into the Zano network as ETHx, allowing them to enjoy private transactions while still keeping their assets backed by real ETH.
Blockchain technology has transformed the way we transfer value, but it has also introduced a trade-off that many users overlook: transparency. On most public blockchains, every transaction is visible to anyone with access to a block explorer. While this improves accountability, it also means your financial activity is open for the world to see.
Networks like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other public blockchains make transaction data easily accessible. Anyone can view:
The asset being transferred (BTC, ETH, USDT, etc.)
The amount sent
The sender’s wallet address
The recipient’s wallet address
The transaction history
Although wallet addresses are pseudonymous, they can often be linked to individuals or organizations through exchanges, analytics tools, or previous transactions. This creates significant privacy concerns for both individuals and businesses.
2. How Zano Takes a Different Approach
Zano was built with privacy at its core. Instead of exposing transaction details on-chain, Zano uses Confidential Assets, ensuring that every transaction appears identical on the blockchain.
Whether you’re transferring $ZANO,$fUSD, $BTCx, or any other Confidential Asset, observers cannot determine:
Which asset was transferred
The amount being sent
The sender’s address
The recipient’s address
All of this information remains encrypted while the network still verifies the transaction’s validity.
3. Why Confidential Assets Matter
Privacy isn’t about hiding wrongdoing—it’s about protecting legitimate financial activity.
Imagine paying employees, suppliers, or business partners. On a transparent blockchain, competitors or third parties could potentially monitor transaction amounts and business relationships. Individuals may also prefer to keep their savings and spending habits private rather than broadcasting them publicly.
Zano’s Confidential Assets solve this challenge by allowing users to transact securely without exposing sensitive information.
4. Privacy Without Sacrificing Security
Despite hiding transaction details, Zano maintains blockchain security and integrity through advanced cryptographic techniques. Transactions remain verifiable by the network without revealing confidential information to the public.
This means users receive the benefits of decentralization while preserving financial privacy—a feature that many believe will become increasingly important as blockchain adoption grows.
5. The Future of Private Digital Assets
As blockchain technology continues to evolve, privacy is becoming a critical feature rather than an optional extra. Businesses, institutions, and everyday users are increasingly demanding solutions that protect sensitive financial information without compromising security.
Zano’s Confidential Assets represent a significant step toward that future, offering a blockchain where privacy is built into the protocol rather than added as an afterthought.
For users who value financial confidentiality while still benefiting from decentralized technology, Zano provides a compelling alternative to traditional transparent blockchains.
Bitcoin’s own official account has called it “trackable digital gold.” That’s because every Bitcoin transaction is permanently visible to anyone — who sent it, who got it, and how much. Forever.
That means your coins can be traced. And sometimes, exchanges flag or block coins just because of where they’ve been before, even if you did nothing wrong.
Zano is a privacy coin — it hides your balance and transactions so no one else can see them. That’s great for you, but it creates a problem: exchanges, apps, and bridges (the services that let you trade or move your crypto) usually need to “see” balances to work properly, and they can’t do that easily with Zano.
Zano’s new Gateway Addresses feature solves this. It gives exchanges and other services a way to work with Zano smoothly — without exposing your personal wallet or your everyday privacy. See the illustration below.
Think of a regular bank account: your balance is just one simple number the bank can check instantly.
Zano doesn’t work that way by design — for privacy reasons, your balance is spread across many hidden pieces of data instead of one visible number. That’s what keeps your funds private. But it also means that when an exchange or app tries to check “how much does this person have,” it has to do a lot of extra digging behind the scenes.
That extra work discouraged many exchanges and apps from supporting Zano at all — fewer places to trade it, and less flexibility for users.
2. What Gateway Addresses Actually Do
Gateway Addresses are basically a separate, special type of address made just for exchanges and services to use — like a dedicated front door for businesses, separate from your personal wallet.
Your everyday Zano address and your privacy stay exactly the same. Nothing changes for you.
Services that use a Gateway Address can see a simple, always-up-to-date balance, similar to a regular bank account, instead of having to dig through complicated data.
This makes it much faster and easier for exchanges and apps to support Zano.
One thing worth knowing: money moving through a Gateway Address is visible on the blockchain (that’s what makes it easy for services to track). But even then, the identity of who sent it stays hidden thanks to Zano’s existing privacy tools. Your personal wallet and daily use remain fully private either way.
3. Why This Is a Big Deal
Because Gateway Addresses make Zano easier to work with, it opens the door to:
More places to buy, sell, and trade ZANO — exchanges are more likely to support it.
Moving ZANO to other blockchains and back (like Ethereum, TON, and Solana) safely, without needing to trust a middleman.
Better odds of being listed on major exchanges, since some big platforms have avoided Zano in the past due to these technical hurdles.
More ways to use ZANO in the wider crypto world, while still being able to return to full privacy whenever you want.
4. When Is This Coming?
This feature is part of a bigger upgrade called Hard Fork 6 (HF6). It’s already been tested and is expected to go live on the main Zano network soon.
5. What You Need to Know as a User
You don’t need to do anything — your existing Zano address and wallet keep working exactly as before.
Your everyday privacy is not affected in any way.
Gateway Addresses only matter to businesses like exchanges and bridges that need to integrate with Zano — not to individual users going about normal transactions.
Over time, expect to see more exchanges, apps, and services supporting ZANO as a result of this upgrade.
Online merchants now have a new way to accept private crypto payments directly at checkout. Zano announced AnyCoin, a WooCommerce payment gateway plugin that lets store owners accept both $ZANO and $fUSD.
AnyCoin integrates straight into WooCommerce, giving merchants the option to accept $ZANO and $fUSD at checkout. Funds go directly to the merchant’s own wallet — there’s no middleman and no custodian involved. It’s built for private, peer-to-peer payments without routing transactions through a third party.
2. Why It Matters
For store owners already running WooCommerce, this lowers the barrier to accepting crypto payments. There’s no need to integrate a separate custodial processor or hand control of funds to an intermediary — payments settle straight into the merchant’s wallet, keeping the transaction private and direct.
This also expands real-world utility for $ZANO and $fUSD, giving holders an actual use case beyond trading: spending and receiving payments for goods and services online.
3. How to Set It Up
Merchants can install the plugin directly from the WordPress plugin directory:
Zano is giving its community a reason to cheer beyond the football pitch. The project announced a limited-time promotion offering 0% ramp fees on $ZANO purchases made through Alchemy Pay, timed to coincide with the 2026 World Cup.
The promotion is already underway and runs until July 20, 2026, at 6 PM (UTC+8), giving users the rest of this window to buy $ZANO directly with fiat currency through Alchemy Pay without paying any ramp fees. Normally, fiat-to-crypto on-ramps charge a fee for converting cash into digital assets — Zano and Alchemy Pay are waiving that cost entirely for the promotion’s duration.
Note: Alchemy Pay requires KYC verification before use.
2. Why It Matters
Ramp fees are often an overlooked barrier for newcomers entering crypto. By removing them, Zano is lowering the entry point for anyone looking to acquire $ZANO directly with fiat, no extra steps or conversions required.
The campaign also leans into World Cup excitement, framing the promotion as Zano’s way of joining the global celebration while giving its community a tangible incentive to participate.
3. Bottom Line
If you’ve been waiting to pick up $ZANO without the usual fiat on-ramp costs, the window is still open — but only until July 20, 2026 at 6 PM (UTC+8). As always, only purchase through official, verified channels.
The new wallet update includes several features and technical improvements:
Gateway Addresses support
Stricter HF6 consensus rules
Intrinsic payment IDs for individual outputs
Stronger wallet-file encryption
Simulation mode for mining-pool block validation
P2P security improvements, including SOCKS5 proxy support
More secure RPC tools for data encryption and decryption
2. Why Update Before Hardfork 6?
A hardfork is a major network upgrade that introduces new rules or features.
By updating early, users can make sure their wallet is compatible with the upcoming changes and avoid needing to update at the last minute.
3. Key Security Improvements
The update focuses strongly on security.
It improves wallet-file encryption, adds tighter network protections against denial-of-service attacks, and strengthens tools used for encrypting and decrypting data.
For users, the main takeaway is simple: update from an official source and keep your wallet recovery phrase private and secure.
4. How to Download the Wallet
The official Zano wallet page provides download options for desktop, mobile and browser-based wallets.
Always download wallet software from official sources only. Before installing, check that you are on the official Zano website and verify the download details where available.
A recent post from @SimpleSwap shared a message from Zano co-founder Pavel Nikienkov:
“Strip self-custody or permissionless access away, and what’s left is theatre.”
His point is simple: if a crypto platform controls users’ funds or can remove access without warning, it may be rebuilding the same system that crypto was meant to improve.
Self-custody means you control your own crypto assets and private keys.
You do not need to rely on an exchange, bank or other company to hold your funds. This gives users more control, but it also means they are responsible for keeping their recovery phrase and wallet access secure.
2. Why Permissionless Access Matters
Permissionless access means people can use a blockchain network without needing approval from a company or central authority.
This can reduce the risk of:
Account restrictions
Frozen withdrawals
Unexpected service shutdowns
Dependence on one platform
Convenient services can still be useful, but users should understand the trade-off between convenience and control.
3. Zano’s Approach
Zano focuses on privacy, self-custody and decentralised access. Its goal is to give users more control over their transactions and assets without relying on a central operator.
As crypto continues to grow, the key question remains: should users prioritise convenience, full control, or a balance of both?
Zano is now available on sshwap, a terminal-based crypto swap service accessed through SSH. This gives users another way to swap ZANO without using a traditional web browser.
sshwap is a terminal-based crypto swapper that users can access through an SSH client. Instead of opening a website, users connect through a terminal emulator.
It can work on devices with terminal access and may be useful in low-bandwidth environments. According to sshwap, it is available through clearnet, Tor and I2P.
2. Why a Terminal Interface Matters
Most crypto swap services use a web browser. sshwap takes a different approach:
No browser required — swaps are managed through a terminal interface.
No JavaScript required — this can reduce exposure to browser-based tracking and scripts.
Privacy-focused connection options — users can connect through Tor or I2P, as well as standard internet connections.
Lightweight access — useful for people who prefer simple tools or have limited connectivity.
A browser-free setup may reduce the attack surface, but users should still review sshwap’s terms, privacy policy, supported assets and swap conditions before using it.
3. How It Fits With Zano
Zano is a privacy-focused blockchain designed for confidential transactions and assets by default.
The sshwap integration gives ZANO users another option to swap their coins through a lightweight, terminal-based interface. It does not replace other Zano ecosystem tools; it simply adds another access route for users who prefer privacy-oriented connectivity and browser-free tools.
4. Getting Started
Visit sshwap’s official website for current connection instructions, supported assets and service details.
Did you know that every transaction fee paid on the Zano network is permanently burned?
Unlike many blockchain networks that redistribute transaction fees, Zano removes every fee from circulation forever. This unique mechanism means that increased network activity can contribute to reducing the overall supply of ZANO over time.
As adoption grows, this feature could play an important role in Zano’s long-term tokenomics.
In cryptocurrency, burning coins means permanently removing them from circulation.
Once coins are burned, they cannot be recovered, spent, or reintroduced into the supply. This reduces the total number of coins available over time.
Many projects conduct occasional token burns, but Zano has incorporated burning directly into its network activity.
How Zano’s Fee Burn Mechanism Works
Every transaction on the Zano blockchain requires a network fee.
Instead of distributing those fees back into circulation, Zano permanently destroys them.
Action
Result
User sends a transaction
Network fee is paid
Fee is processed
Fee is burned
Burn completed
Coins are permanently removed from supply
Every fee burned. No exceptions.
Why Every Transaction Matters
Each transaction contributes to reducing the circulating supply of ZANO.
As more people use the network:
More transactions occur
More fees are paid
More ZANO is burned
This creates a direct relationship between blockchain usage and supply reduction.
Can Zano Become Deflationary?
A deflationary asset is one where the total supply decreases over time.
If enough transaction fees are burned through network activity, the amount of ZANO removed from circulation can increase, causing the overall supply to shrink.
While future outcomes depend on adoption and transaction volume, the mechanism is already built into the protocol.
What Makes Zano Different?
Many blockchain networks use fees to reward validators, miners, or other participants.
Zano follows a different approach.
Traditional Blockchain Networks
Zano
Fees are redistributed
Fees are burned
Supply often grows
Supply can shrink
Burns may be occasional
Burns occur with every transaction
This means network activity itself can contribute to scarcity.
Key Takeaways
🔥 Every transaction fee on Zano is permanently burned.
🔥 Burned coins are removed from circulation forever.
🔥 Increased network activity results in more ZANO being burned.
🔥 Supply can decrease over time if burn activity is significant.
🔥 Every transaction contributes to Zano’s long-term tokenomics.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is known for fast and low-cost transactions, but like many public blockchains, transaction activity can be viewed by anyone. For users who value financial privacy, BCHx offers a new way to protect transaction details while maintaining exposure to Bitcoin Cash.
Through Edge Wallet, users can now swap BCH into BCHx, a privacy-focused asset issued on the Zano blockchain at a 1:1 ratio.
BCHx is a private asset on the Zano blockchain that represents Bitcoin Cash (BCH) on a 1:1 basis.
When users swap BCH for BCHx, they retain exposure to the value of Bitcoin Cash while gaining access to Zano’s privacy-focused blockchain technology.
Why Privacy Matters for Bitcoin Cash Users
Bitcoin Cash transactions are recorded on a public blockchain. This means transaction details can potentially be viewed and analyzed by anyone.
Public blockchain activity may reveal:
Transaction history
Wallet balances
Sender information
Receiver information
Movement of funds between addresses
For users who prefer greater financial confidentiality, BCHx provides an alternative.
How BCHx Works
The process is designed to be simple and accessible:
Step
Description
1
User swaps BCH for BCHx within Edge Wallet
2
The original BCH is locked
3
BCHx is issued on the Zano blockchain at a 1:1 ratio
4
Users can transact privately using BCHx
This allows users to benefit from Zano’s privacy features while maintaining exposure to BCH value.
Privacy Benefits of BCHx
BCHx leverages Zano’s privacy technology to help protect transaction information.
