Privacy stack

XELIS aims to hide amounts and balances while still allowing the network to validate correctness. The public documentation highlights:

• Homomorphic encryption (ElGamal-based) for encrypted amounts and balances — the FAQ specifies Ristretto255 points on Curve25519 (~128-bit security) for this usage.
• Zero-knowledge proofs — the project documents use Bulletproofs for efficient range proofs (see roadmap / feature history on docs.xelis.io and related feature pages).
• Confidential assets for native-style tokens with compatible privacy properties.
