We have integrated Zcash's Orchard 0.16.0 for shielded transactions. The private sending logic is working on our devnet, and we have successfully tested and blocked double-spends and counterfeit attacks on a live seed node. Before we enable private sending on a public testnet, we need an independent cryptographer to review the integration. We are specifically looking for a review of: • Circuit usage (we use the fixed Orchard circuit) • Note tree construction and anchor maturity • Nullifier storage • Turnstile supply accounting (we use a public balance ledger to ensure no inflation) The honest situation: We are entirely bootstrapped. We cannot pay standard industry audit rates ($10k+) right now. We are looking for someone who loves privacy tech and wants to help a new chain launch safely.
