COTI has expanded its privacy infrastructure to Avalanche, giving crypto users and developers a way to handle sensitive transactions without moving assets to a separate privacy network.

The rollout places COTI's Privacy-on-Demand directly on Avalanche, enabling private computation for applications built on the C-Chain and for Avalanche L1s. At the same time, COTI's Privacy Portal has been updated to include one-click access to private AVAX and USDC on Avalanche, removing the need for users to transition to a separate platform.

In a post on X on September 16, 2026, the COTI Foundation announced the launch:

Private Computation Comes to Avalanche

Privacy-on-Demand is designed to work on top of applications, tokens, and smart contracts that already exist on Avalanche. As a result developers do not need to move their assets to a dedicated privacy chain in order to use COTI's infrastructure.

Once integrated, the system handles sensitive data in a private way and provides an encrypted answer. Transactions retain their data and business logic throughout, without revealing the details of the underlying assets to the applications involved.

COTI notes that the infrastructure can enable a range of crypto use cases, including private stablecoin transfers, confidential payments, private DeFi, tokenized assets, and other applications that demand selective data disclosure.

The same capability extends to Avalanche L1s. Projects building on these networks can incorporate privacy options without having to construct new infrastructure on a separate network.

Garbled Circuits Power the Privacy Layer

The technology behind COTI's privacy offering is based on a form of multi-party computation known as Garbled Circuits. This approach makes it possible for a calculation to be performed without revealing the actual data involved.

According to COTI, the technology runs up to 3,000 times faster than other privacy technologies and is 250 times smaller in weight, although the comparison was made based on the company's own advantages. Speed and footprint are the practical constraints for any privacy layer, since the computation runs on top of normal application logic and has to keep transactions usable.

Private AVAX and USDC Arrive on C-Chain

The launch also brings COTI's Privacy Portal to the Avalanche C-Chain. The portal enables users to make tokens private in a fairly straightforward way, with private balances available from launch.

At any point in time, a user can opt to send, receive, and hold AVAX and USDC while keeping their private balance data visible only to themselves. Users can also move assets back to the public side if necessary. AVAX is Avalanche's native token, and USDC is a US dollar stablecoin, so the private options cover both the network's base asset and a widely used payment rail.

This design allows Avalanche users to test out and practice confidential transactions without leaving the platform. With regard to stablecoins, the feature may enable payments, settlement, and other scenarios that require private disclosure of balances or settlement amounts.

Privacy Targets Avalanche's Growing Crypto Economy

COTI is preparing the infrastructure to support more than private transfers of tokens. The company cites opportunities in the tokenization of real-world assets, stablecoins, payments, payroll, private DeFi, and Avalanche L1s. Private computation may also be used to provide a limited amount of public data, combined with custom business logic defined by the developer.

Selective disclosure is another part of the design. The necessary data can be made available to authorized parties when required for compliance or verification, while other data remains private by default. That structure mirrors how conventional business payments are handled: details stay between the parties involved but can be shown to auditors or regulators when needed.

With Privacy-on-Demand now available on Avalanche, COTI is taking its privacy technology to the next level by allowing it to be integrated into infrastructure alongside existing crypto applications and assets. Adoption is the signal to watch from here: how readily existing Avalanche applications and L1 teams fold the tooling in will show how the setup performs in live conditions.
