Real funds, on Monad and World Chain.
Public chains give institutions settlement, interoperability and composability. They also make counterparties and amounts visible to anyone with a block explorer, and the usual response has been to work in a walled-off environment, or to stay off the public rail altogether.
Merces makes privacy a property of the rail itself. Balances and counterparties stay hidden onchain, and no node in the TACEO network can read a balance, because no node ever holds one in readable form.
The state stays shared even while it stays private, which is what makes this more than private payments. A stablecoin transfer may only needs the transaction hidden. A tokenised fund, security or other tokenised assets (RWAs) needs a private register that still enforces eligibility, concentration limits and pro-rata distributions. Rules have to look across every holder at once without revealing what any one of them owns.
Financial logic still runs, and every operation produces a proof, verified onchain, that it executed correctly. Correctness is proved rather than trusted, so it doesn't rest on the integrity of any individual node.
Compliance works the same way.
Screening happens before a transaction executes, and afterwards the institution decides what gets opened to an auditor or a regulator. Specific records, not the whole book.
None of it requires migrating migrating your stack.
Merces works with the chains, token standards and keys already in use, and the same integration works across chains. No new chain, no new asset, no new wallet.
Payments settle on mainnet today. Yield, agentic payments, and issuer controls run on testnets, moving to mainnet through the rest of the year.
@monad and @world_chain_ are the launch networks.
@LayerZero_Core is building private cross-chain transfers with us.
@IntellectEU is integrating Merces into CatalyX for its bank clients.
@OrionFinanceAI is working with us on private vaults.
@ZenithNetwork is working with us on shared-state privacy inside Canton.
The privacy layer for onchain finance is now live.
