HypBTC

HypBTC introduces a novel privacy layer for token transfers across blockchains, starting with Bitcoin on the Citrea zk-rollup and extending to EVM-compatible chains via Hyperlane. It leverages Multi-Party Computation (MPC) to conceal transaction amounts, enabling secure and confidential financial interactions in a multi-chain environment.

In Africa, where financial exclusion, high remittance fees, and surveillance risks limit access to digital finance, HypBTC empowers users to send and receive funds without compromising privacy. It provides a foundational protocol for building compliant, privacy-focused financial applications that address the continent's unique needs—ranging from cross-border remittances to censorship-resistant savings.

Through its integration with Self Protocol for private OFAC checks, HypBTC balances regulatory compliance with individual privacy. This enables governments, fintech startups, and communities to adopt Web3 technologies responsibly, fostering innovation without sacrificing user protection.

HypBTC is designed as a developer-first infrastructure layer that African teams can use to build new solutions, such as private wallets, microfinance apps, and decentralized marketplaces. By making Bitcoin more usable, programmable, and private, HypBTC strengthens Africa’s financial sovereignty and technological independence from within.
