The protocol also functions with zk-SNARK, which enables zero-knowledge proofs allowing users to demonstrate possession of information without needing to reveal it. The use of this technology is based on open-source research made by Zcash team with the help of the Ethereum community.

The protocol currently uses Tornado.Cash Trusted Setup Community, which was launched in May 2020 & accounts for 1114 contributions. This significant number of contributors makes it impossible to compromise the protocol by faking zero-knowledge proofs.
