Use Cases

Encrypted Asset Transfers

Blockchains are transparent by design, but users deserve confidentiality. With Silensio, users can send ETH, tokens, or NFTs without exposing wallet history or recipient identity.

How it works:

  • Deposit assets to SilenMixer and withdraw them from a new wallet

  • Use SilenWallet’s stealth addressing for private receiving

  • Prevent linking between sender and receiver—even across multiple chains

Ideal for: private remittances, donation flows, confidential OTC trades, and DAO treasury management


Freelance & Private Payroll

Web3 work is global, but payments are traceable. Freelancers, contributors, and teams deserve compensation without exposing who they work for or how much they’re paid.

How it works:

  • Use SilenPay to create private payment links or invoices

  • Employers can pay contributors without revealing sender or receiver identity

  • Set up recurring payments or subscription-based workflows anonymously

Ideal for: bounty programs, DAO contributor rewards, agency contracts, grant payouts


Private File Sharing & Document Storage

Web3 projects often need to share sensitive documentation—such as audit reports, internal memos, strategic plans, or legal records—without relying on Google Drive or exposing content to the public.

How it works:

  • Upload encrypted documents via SilenFile

  • Set zk-access controls so only authorized users can view or decrypt files

  • Prove document access happened (optional), without revealing contents

Ideal for: DAOs, legal teams, researchers, whistleblowers, and governance councils


Anonymous Identity & Credential Verification

In many scenarios, users need to prove they meet requirements—such as being a DAO member, over a certain age, or holding a specific role—without sharing personal information.

How it works:

  • Issue zkCredentials via SilenWallet

  • Allow apps or DAOs to verify eligibility using zkProofs

  • Keep user identity fully private while enabling full participation

Ideal for: role-based DAO access, token-gated events, age-gated apps, community whitelisting


Private Communication & Collaboration

Collaboration in Web3 often happens in public or on centralized platforms. Silensio offers a fully private and encrypted way to communicate, exchange files, and coordinate in real time.

How it works:

  • Use SilenMesh for P2P encrypted messaging

  • Exchange files without exposing metadata or IP address

  • Generate zkProof-of-Conversation (opt-in) to verify discussion occurred—useful for governance or dispute resolution

Ideal for: DAO core teams, anonymous contributors, multi-sig discussions, or governance negotiation


DAO Governance & Treasury Confidentiality

DAOs thrive on transparency—but not all decisions should be public. Budget allocations, sensitive discussions, or upcoming protocol changes may require private coordination before public execution.

How it works:

  • Share confidential treasury plans via SilenFile

  • Use SilenPay to execute payroll or token transfers discreetly

  • Communicate and vote in private using SilenMesh and zkCredentials

Ideal for: treasury committees, governance boards, legal DAOs, and protocol strategy groups
