Case Studies & Projects

Privacy remains one of the most difficult challenges in blockchain usability. While several privacy protocols exist, many require complex workflows and slow proof generation, limiting their use in everyday payments. Telos partnered with Protofire to build Telos zkWallet, a privacy-enabled wallet designed to make shielded transactions accessible to a broader audience within the Telos EVM ecosystem. The project delivered a production-ready privacy wallet with cross-platform desktop support (macOS, Windows, Linux) and a full privacy infrastructure stack including smart contracts, ZK circuits, relayer services, and indexing infrastructure. By implementing native Rust-based proof generation, the solution reduced proof latency from typical browser execution times of 15-25 seconds to approximately 3-5 seconds, improving responsiveness by up to 80%. The result is a privacy wallet that enables private transactions on Telos mainnet while maintaining a user experience comparable to standard Web3 wallets.
