Accelerating trajectory into interstellar space.

Slingshot is a new blockchain architecture under active development, with a strong focus on scalability, privacy and safety.

The Slingshot project consists of the following sub-protocols and components:

A blockchain transaction format that is an evolution of TxVM with cloaked assets and zero-knowledge smart contracts.

• README
• ZkVM whitepaper
• ZkVM specification
• Blockchain specification
• ZkVM API guide

Interstellar’s implementation of Cloak, a confidential assets protocol based on the Bulletproofs zero-knowledge circuit proof system.

• Spacesuit README
• Cloak specification

A pure Rust implementation of the Simple Schnorr Multi-Signatures by Maxwell, Poelstra, Seurin and Wuille.

• README
• Musig specification

A key blinding scheme for deriving hierarchies of public keys for Ristretto-based signatures.

• Specification

An API for issuing assets using ZkVM.

A demonstration of a minimal Stellar sidechain. Slidechain allows you to peg funds from the Stellar testnet, import then to a sidechain, and later export them back to Stellar.
