Description

Obscura β€” Private Finance Infrastructure on Arbitrum

Obscura is a privacy-first financial operating system built on Arbitrum and powered by Fhenix CoFHE.

Our goal is to bring practical financial privacy to payments, lending, governance, identity, and AI-native applications while preserving composability, usability, and onchain verifiability.

Rather than building a single privacy application, Obscura demonstrates how encrypted state can power an entire financial ecosystem on Arbitrum.

Core Products

Obscura Pay

Obscura Pay provides confidential financial interactions powered by encrypted balances.

Key capabilities include:

  • Private payments

  • Encrypted USDC (ocUSDC)

  • Payroll infrastructure

  • Recurring payment streams

  • Protected escrow

  • Private invoices

  • Subscription management

  • Stealth receiving

  • Private inbox delivery

  • Smart account integrations

Obscura Credit

Obscura Credit introduces privacy-preserving lending infrastructure.

Features include:

  • Encrypted collateral

  • Confidential borrowing

  • Private health metrics

  • Liquidation infrastructure

  • Credit scoring

  • Risk management

  • Automation hooks

  • Earn vault infrastructure

Obscura Vote

Obscura Vote enables confidential governance participation.

Features include:

  • Encrypted voting

  • Private ballots

  • Delegation

  • Revoting support

  • Treasury management

  • Proposal execution

  • Governance rewards

  • Participation tracking

Obscura Identity

Obscura Identity acts as a shared reputation and activity layer across the ecosystem.

Identity aggregates signals from:

  • Payments

  • Credit activity

  • Governance participation

  • Protocol achievements

  • Reputation scoring

This creates reusable privacy-preserving trust signals that can be leveraged across applications.

Cross-Product Integrations

A major focus of Obscura is interoperability between products rather than isolated applications.

Examples include:

  • Payment activity contributing to reputation signals

  • Credit behavior influencing trust and scoring systems

  • Governance participation feeding identity profiles

  • Shared activity infrastructure across all products

  • Unified user profiles spanning payments, credit, and governance

This transforms Obscura from a collection of dApps into a complete privacy-finance operating system.

Agentic & Developer Infrastructure

To accelerate adoption and integrations, Obscura includes developer tooling and AI-agent infrastructure.

Obscura SDK

Published TypeScript SDK providing access to:

  • Payments

  • Credit

  • Governance

  • Reputation

  • Activity systems

  • Notifications

Obscura MCP

Published MCP tooling supporting:

  • Cursor

  • Claude

  • VS Code

  • Agent workflows

  • Automation platforms

This allows AI agents and developers to build directly on top of Obscura infrastructure.

Mobile Experience

Obscura includes a live Android application that extends encrypted finance to mobile users.

Users can access:

  • Payments

  • Credit

  • Governance

  • Identity

through the same privacy-preserving architecture available on web.

Production Readiness

The ecosystem currently includes:

  • 38 deployed smart contracts

  • 51 indexed protocol events

  • 28 reputation signals

  • Shared identity infrastructure

  • Shared reputation infrastructure

  • Shared activity infrastructure

  • SDK and MCP tooling

  • Mobile application support

Recent improvements include:

  • Credit Vault privacy enhancements

  • Expanded CoFHE integration testing

  • End-to-end protocol validation

  • SDK improvements and NPM releases

  • MCP tooling improvements

  • Documentation expansion

  • Frontend and backend stability upgrades

Why Obscura Matters

Most privacy applications solve a single problem.

Obscura demonstrates how payments, lending, governance, reputation, mobile applications, and AI agents can operate together within a unified privacy-first ecosystem built on Arbitrum.

By combining Arbitrum's scalability with Fhenix CoFHE encrypted computation, Obscura showcases a practical path toward the next generation of private onchain finance.
