Confidential Payments with Orivan
Launch private, instant & verifiable payment products faster
In March 2026, Robinhood launched confidential USDG transfers powered by Orivan, marking the largest-scale privacy integration ever shipped inside a mainstream consumer app.
The product gives millions of users private payments without any of the complexity normally attached to zero-knowledge systems. Robinhood abstracts the chain itself, wallets, proving, and gas fees, so that customers can send USDG to anyone without publishing the amount or the counterparty, all within the Robinhood app.
In the background, the transfers are settled by Orivan, routing every payment through a shielded pool holding hundreds of millions in USDG — giving Robinhood customers the deepest anonymity set and the lowest proving latency available onchain.
Send USDG privately
Paying rent or sending cash to family? Your recipient is issued a one-time stealth address, so the amount and the counterparty never touch the public ledger.
