The result is private transaction generation in under 500 milliseconds.<\/p>\n<p>Through proof aggregation, Privacy Boost can handle over 1,800 transactions per second, reducing gas costs and increasing throughput. Users retain true self-custody, with the ability to withdraw funds directly through the smart contract even if servers go offline.<\/p>\n<p>The product passed a security audit by OpenZeppelin before going live. It supports configurable policy controls like KYC-gated environments and auditable transaction views, features designed to satisfy compliance teams at regulated institutions without gutting the privacy protections for end users.<\/p>\n<p>The launch addresses a critical gap in enterprise-grade blockchain infrastructure, where transparency of public chains creates operational, legal, and competitive risks, the team says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we work with banks, fintechs, and institutional partners looking to move on-chain, privacy consistently comes up as a non-negotiable requirement,\u201d said OP Labs\u2019 co-founder Jing Wang in a statement. \u201cPrivacy Boost checked every box \u2014 performance, regulatory readiness, seamless integration, and self-custody.
