Gloam is live on Tempo

The idea is simple. You shield a balance, then pay and send without putting your size or your holdings on display. Anyone can still verify that a payment settled. They just cannot see how much you moved or what you are holding. Private for you, provable to whoever needs it.

Why Tempo

Public chains put finance on public rails. Every balance, every size, every move is visible. That is a fine default for a block explorer and a terrible one for real payments. Tempo is a payments-first stablecoin L1, so it is exactly the place where private stablecoin payments should live. Gloam is the sealed chamber on top: self-custodial, permissionless, and provable, not an operator who sees everything.

What works today

On Tempo you can shield a stablecoin balance (PathUSD), pay and send privately to a receive tag, and cash out to a public balance whenever you want it public. You can also make a selective disclosure: prove you hold a specific balance to a counterparty or an auditor without revealing anything else. The same works for AI agents that need to pay for tools without broadcasting every move.

Every private action is proof-gated on-chain. There are no mock fills and no theatrical privacy. If a path cannot be both private and solvent yet, it waits. That is why private trade (sealed swaps) is off for now, until the solvency accounting lands.

Honest status

This is Tempo's Moderato testnet, with play money. The proving keys are a development ceremony, so a production multi-party ceremony and an external audit are the gate before any mainnet. We self-reviewed the contracts across two multi-agent audit passes, fixed the findings, and redeployed the hardened pools on both Robinhood Chain and Tempo. Gloam is one private core on two chains, plus an SDK and an agent surface, not just a single app.

Come break it. Open the app, read the docs, or start with the testnet guide.
