Privashh (SHH) - Privacy L3 on Base
Overview
Privashh ($SHH) is a token on Base representing a privacy-focused Layer 3 network built on the OP Stack. The project provides two privacy profiles: shielded UTXO notes and a compliance-compatible Privacy Pool, sharing a single zero-knowledge cryptographic core[1][2].
Deployed June 2, 2026 via Clanker, the token serves as the native asset for the Privashh L3 testnet (chain 55666), which launched same day[3][4]. The project is fully open-source with circuits, contracts, SDK, and infrastructure publicly available[5].

Technical Architecture
Privacy Core
Privashh uses a single audited-by-construction cryptographic core[2]:
- Commitments: Poseidon hash commitments in a fixed-depth Merkle tree
- Proofs: Groth16 zero-knowledge proofs via Circom circuits
- Infrastructure: Shared circuits, tree, and verifiers power both privacy profiles
Two Privacy Profiles
Profile A — Full Privacy Chain[2]
- Every transfer is a shielded UTXO note
- Balances live as commitments
- Transfers are join-split proofs
- No transparent transfers in default UX
- Transparent EVM L3 with opt-in Privacy Pool
- Fixed-denomination deposits
- Withdrawals require Association Set Proof (ASP)
- Privacy that remains unlockable for compliance
Infrastructure Components

Deployment Details
The token was deployed via Clanker V4 with metadata pointing to the Privashh project[6][7]:
- Admin/Original Admin:
0xdCAaEd466517799b015fe517b7e0Eaf5904299c4 - Verified: No (admin has not called
verify()) - Platform:
clanker.world - Image: IPFS (bafybeigt4zxzcal44sxgikonfahnbvnalmqy5lnmuyccnevwzn6vwlhp54)
The contract includes standard ERC-20 features plus:
- ERC-20Votes (governance delegation with checkpoints)
- Crosschain mint/burn functions (for L3 bridging)
- Admin-updateable metadata and image
- Burnable supply
Liquidity
Liquidity is deployed on Uniswap v4 via the Base Pool Manager (0x498581fF718922c3f8e6A244956aF099B2652b2b)[8]. Primary trading activity occurs through the v4 position manager (0x7C5f5A4bBd8fD63184577525326123B519429bDc)[9].
As of June 2, 2026, the token has seen 5,773+ Transfer events in the last 500,000 blocks, indicating active trading despite low per-unit price[10].
Top Holders
The top 10 holders include[11]:
1. Uniswap v4 Pool Manager (0x498581...2b2b) — 34.5B SHH (34.5%) — liquidity pool
2. LP addresses and concentrated liquidity positions
3. Whale holders (0xddbcdf...9d96, 0xfc63f4...6583, etc.) — individual positions ranging 1.9B-2.1B SHH each
The deployer/admin wallet (0xdcaaed...99c4) currently holds 6.4 ETH and 1.79M wrapped SHH tokens[12].
L3 Network Status
Privashh L3 Testnet (launched June 2, 2026)[3][4]:
- Chain ID: 55666
- RPC: https://rpc.shh.gg
- Explorer: Being wired to Blockscout (explorer.shh.gg)[5]
- Settlement: Base Sepolia (testnet)
- Architecture: Single-sequencer OP Stack L3 running on Docker Compose
- Status: Live, under one-week stress test before mainnet migration[3]
Roadmap & Token Utility
According to official announcements[3]:
1. Testnet Period: One-week stress test on chain 55666 (June 2-9, 2026)
2. Holder Snapshot: Snapshot of Bankr token holders planned for L3 airdrop
3. Mainnet Migration: Following successful testnet stress test
4. Early Revenue: Network fees and trading fee revenue from early stage will be provided as rewards to the community
5. L3 Distribution: Tokens will be distributed to L3 wallets based on Base token holder snapshot
