TREE NEWS update: Raycash, a stablecoin payments app spun out of confidential-computing protocol Zama, has launched on the Ethereum mainnet in private beta. Users can swap USDC 1:1 for a confidential token that hides balances and transfer amounts in peer-to-peer on-chain payments, and can earn yield on idle funds via Morpho inside the app. The project said its pre-launch waitlist topped 75,000, with access to open in phases.
Zama spin-off Raycash launches privacy stablecoin payments app on Ethereum
Privacy-preserving stablecoin payments have long been a regulatory gray zone, so Raycash's choice to launch on Ethereum mainnet rather than a sidechain or L2 is the notable signal here — it bets that confidential transfers can coexist with the most scrutinized settlement layer. The Morpho yield integration also blurs the line between a payments tool and a yield product, which is where compliance attention tends to concentrate. The open question is how the phased rollout handles know-your-customer and sanctions screening when balances and amounts are hidden, and whether the waitlist converts into durable usage once access widens.
