Introducing Salvium — Brand New Privacy Blockchain

Salvium is a cutting-edge proof-of-work private blockchain that seamlessly combines staking, enhanced privacy and DeFi capabilities while navigating crypto regulations. Built on a fork of Monero, it retains Monero’s advanced privacy features such as stealth addresses and ring signatures. However, Salvium introduces groundbreaking innovations that significantly alter transaction mechanics, creating a unique solution in the DeFi space.

History

Salvium originated as a research initiative to explore Cryptonote’s potential for private DeFi. Through extensive research, prototyping, and revisiting established Monero studies, our team focused on enhancing scalability, extensibility, and multi-chain interoperability. This rigorous process allowed us to adapt to regulatory changes, particularly under MiCA, positioning Salvium as an evolved version of Cryptonote and Monero.

Taking a ‘privacy-first’ approach, Salvium is designed to meet full MiCA compliance. At launch, we will introduce phase one compliance features, such as refundable payments and a specialized ‘exchange mode’ for supporting these refunds. Over the past year, we’ve also developed features like Conditional Payments (CP), native yield, and staking, with some available at launch and others planned for future updates.

Salvium now brings unique technological advancements, including Transactional Imbalances (TI) and Asynchronous Transactions (AT), establishing the first native Cryptonote staking and yield system. These innovations will drive future development and form the foundation of our ecosystem.

Key Innovations:

Compliant Privacy: Designed with MiCA regulations in mind, Salvium offers refundable transactions and exchange modes, balancing privacy with regulatory requirements.
Native Staking: Earn 20% of block rewards by staking SAL tokens — a first for CryptoNote-based chains.
DeFi Ready: Foundational support for smart contracts and private DeFi applications, with future middleware for easy porting of existing Ethereum DApps.
Transactional Imbalances (TI) & Asynchronous Transactions (AT): Unique technologies enabling advanced features like native yield generation.
Programmable Privacy: Empowering developers to build DApps with customizable privacy levels.
