Technology Stack

Shady Labs is powered by a modern, privacy-focused tech stack that combines Solana’s performance, advanced cryptography, and developer-ready tools to deliver a seamless, secure Web3 experience.

1. Solana Blockchain

The foundation of Shady fast, scalable, and low-cost. All private transactions, stealth events, and ZK verifications run natively on Solana mainnet, ensuring real decentralization.

⚙️ 2. Anchor Framework

A Rust-based framework for building secure and auditable smart contracts on Solana. Used to power the Shady Stealth Program and zk-Gate module.

3. Cryptography Layer (libsodium)

All key generation and encryption use libsodium with X25519 key exchange and XChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption. This ensures end-to-end client-side privacy — no data ever leaves your device unencrypted.

4. Zero-Knowledge Protocols

Integration with Elusiv and Light Protocol brings ZK proofs to Shady Labs, enabling:

• Private swaps

• zk-Gate access

• Scalable privacy verification

5. Helius RPC & Indexing

Provides high-speed access to blockchain data for event scanning, wallet updates, and encrypted inbox monitoring all without exposing private details.

6. Frontend Framework

Built using Next.js, TailwindCSS for a fast, responsive, and visually immersive interface optimized for both desktop and mobile.

7. AI Scanner (Planned)

An optional local AI agent that will detect encrypted transactions in real time and alert users privately fully offline, without central servers.

🕶 Shady Labs combines Solana’s speed with zero-knowledge privacy — a secure, scalable foundation for the next generation of invisible Web3 interactions.
