The project aims to combine the benefits of decentralized finance (DeFi) with enhanced privacy features using zk-proofs.
- Decentralized Lending Protocol: Secure and efficient on-chain lending with smart contracts.
- Zero-Knowledge Proof Integration: Using Noir Zero-Knowledge (ZK) proofs to enhance privacy by proving collateral validity without revealing the actual amounts during the verification process. This ensures that sensitive financial information, such as the user's collateral amount, remains confidential during the proof generation and verification stages, reducing the risk of targeted attacks and maintaining the confidentiality of their financial positions.
- Ethereum-First Approach: Initially supports ETH collateral with plans to expand to additional assets.
- Future Enhancements: Plans to support multi-asset collateral, enhance zk-proof workflows, and integrate with additional DeFi protocols.

Decentralized Lending Protocols:
Secure and efficient on-chain lending with a smart contract that handles deposits, borrowing, and repayments. -
Zero-Knowledge Proof Integration:
Leverage zk-proofs to maintain privacy by proving collateral validity without revealing the actual amounts during the verification process. While the actual values are stored on-chain, the use of Noir ZK proofs ensures that sensitive calculations are performed privately, enhancing security and reducing on-chain computation costs. -
User-Friendly Front-End:
A streamlined interface that guides users through collateral deposit, zk-proof generation, and transaction signing. The use of Noir on the frontend ensures that the proof generation process is seamless and user-friendly, providing a smooth experience for users interacting with the DeFi protocol. -
Ethereum-First Approach:
Initially supports ETH collateral, with plans to expand to additional assets in the future.
Using zk-proofs in LendX adds significant value by enhancing privacy and security, which are critical aspects of any financial application. While the user can see their own collateral details, zk-proofs ensure that this information is not exposed to others during the verification process, thereby protecting user privacy and preventing potential misuse of collateral information.
- Multi-Asset Support: Expand collateral options beyond ETH.
- Enhanced zk-Proof Workflows: Further refine proof generation and verification.
- Broader DeFi Integrations: Connect with additional protocols and liquidity solutions.
