- [Welcome to Kakushi 隠し](/index): Kakushi is a private execution layer for institutions building on stablecoin rails.
- [What is Kakushi](/introduction/what-is-kakushi): Money is private.
- [How Kakushi compares](/introduction/how-kakushi-compares): Most privacy systems ask you to move to a new public chain, or give up disclosure entirely. Kakushi does neither.
- [Using Kakushi with AI](/introduction/using-kakushi-with-ai): Every page in these docs is available as plain markdown for use with language models.
- [Quickstart](/quickstart): This is the ten minute path.
- [Zones and the trust model](/concepts/zones-and-trust): A zone is a private blockchain only you can see inside, with a public chain's proofs underneath.
- [The portal](/concepts/the-portal): Money walks in as public USDC and becomes private the moment it crosses.
- [Accounts and custody](/concepts/accounts-and-custody): Your existing wallet address is already a Kakushi account. Nothing to deploy, nothing to enroll.
- [Bring your own address](/concepts/bring-your-own-address): A zone account is just an address, the one an auth key recovers to, with nothing deployed.
- [Virtual addresses](/concepts/virtual-addresses): Hand every customer their own address, the way a bank hands out virtual account numbers.
- [Private transfers](/concepts/private-transfers): Pay fifty thousand people and publish zero salaries.
- [Settlement and composability](/concepts/settlement-and-composability): Two institutions settle in real time without sharing a ledger or seeing each other's books.
- [Proofs and the verifier](/concepts/proofs-and-the-verifier): You cannot fake a balance, and you can prove you are solvent without showing a single customer.
- [Fees and gas](/concepts/fees-and-gas): Your users never hold ETH and never see gas. They pay in the dollars they are already sending.
- [Privacy and disclosure](/concepts/privacy-and-disclosure): The public sees nothing, you see everything, the regulator sees what the law entitles them to.
- [Zone policies](/concepts/zone-policies): Compliance is built into the zone. You configure your program; the substrate enforces it on every transfer.
- [Onboard a customer](/guides/onboard-a-customer): Two calls and a webhook, and your customer has a private on-chain account.
- [Accept deposits](/guides/accept-deposits): Anyone with funds on the host chain can pay into your zone, and it lands as a private balance for your user.
- [Make private transfers](/guides/private-transfers): One call moves money privately. One call pays a whole payroll.
- [Process withdrawals](/guides/withdrawals): Burn inside, release canonical USDC outside, in one call.
- [Settle between zones](/guides/settle-between-zones): Send money to another institution's zone like it is a withdrawal. It is interbank settlement.
- [Handle webhooks](/guides/webhooks): React to money moving. Do not poll for it.
- [Non-custodial integration](/guides/non-custodial-integration): The user signs on their device. You never hold the key, and you still cannot move their money.
- [Compliance and disclosure](/guides/compliance): You hold the whole record. Disclosure is an export, not a negotiation with the protocol.
- [SDK reference](/sdk-reference): The look-it-up layer.
- [Connect and EVM reference](/connect-and-evm-reference): The chain-level integration detail.
- [Run a zone](/run-a-zone): Most operators never run any infrastructure.
- [Protocol spec](/protocol-spec): The deep technical layer, for auditors and engineers integrating below the SDK.
- [Resources](/resources): See Key concepts for the working vocabulary, expanded throughout Core concepts.
- [Product updates](/changelogs/product-updates): Product and protocol changes, release by release.
- [SDK changelogs](/changelogs/sdk): Version-by-version changes to the Kakushi SDK.
- [Node network upgrades](/changelogs/node-network-upgrades): Zone node releases and network upgrades.

# Product updates

:::info
Coming soon. This is where every product and protocol change will land: new capabilities, behavior changes, and release notes, newest first. Kakushi is in active development and the first release is not live yet, so there is nothing to report here yet. Check back as we ship, or talk to us if you want to follow along while we build.
:::

Each entry will be dated and tied to a release, with a short summary of what changed and anything that affects how you integrate.
