Privacy Model
Midnight Network gives Precizion a privacy layer that traditional blockchains don't offer. Here's what that means in practice.
The Short Version
Your predictions and bets are private. The market's aggregate state is public. Zero-knowledge proofs let the blockchain verify your actions without seeing your data.
What Is Public
What Is Private
What Can Be Inferred
Even with privacy, some metadata is observable from the public blockchain. An observer can infer:
How ZK Proofs Work Here
Bet Placement
When you place a bet, the Midnight wallet generates a zero-knowledge proof that you have sufficient funds and are submitting a valid prediction. The blockchain verifies this proof without learning your predicted value, bet amount, or wallet address.
Reward Claims
When you claim rewards, you present a Merkle proof that demonstrates you are a valid recipient in the distribution. The ZK proof verifies your eligibility without revealing which participant you were or how much you're receiving.
The Privacy Boundary
Precizion operates across a privacy boundary. Actions within the shielded pool (betting, claiming) are private. Actions that touch the public ledger (market creation, resolution) are visible. The bridge between these two worlds is the zero-knowledge proof.
