CipherScan

Decision text was not parsed from the minutes.

CipherScan is an open-source Zcash block explorer and privacy analysis platform, launched in November 2025, that helps users and developers understand and improve real-world transaction privacy. It uniquely enables fully client-side memo decryption in the browser using WebAssembly-compiled cryptographic libraries, ensuring viewing keys never touch servers, and augments standard explorer functionality with automated detection of common privacy-reducing patterns such as rapid same-amount shielding and deshielding. CipherScan also provides cross-chain visibility into ZEC flows, a robust public REST API, Lightwalletd endpoints, and a custom PostgreSQL-backed indexer to support wallet developers and researchers. With grant support, the project will expand into a Privacy Wallet Scanner with per-transaction privacy scores, real-time wallet-integrated privacy guidance via a Privacy Score API, human-readable transaction explanations, and a weekly Privacy Index to benchmark ecosystem privacy health, while maintaining free, reliable infrastructure for the broader community. Applicant is requesting $58,800. Gguy: We recently had a call with this applicant and they’ve updated the deliverables for this project. I vote to approve this grant. Hanh: Me too. I think the modifications are looking good and the applicant is showing good response and flexibility. So far I like what’s happening. Artkor: This is another example of good feedback from ZCG to an applicant that helped bring the grant proposal into desired form. Given the applicant’s high level of engagement I support approving this grant. Zerodartz: I really like this block explorer and I started using it myself. They’re really responsive for ideas and updates which is a big plus and it’s working with Zebra which has been needed for a while. Approve. Decentralistdan: Happy with the modifications made after feedback given, Approve. Approved (unanimous)

Applicant is requesting $58,800. Gguy: ZCG had the privilege of reviewing some of the hackathon submissions which included many block explorers. This was one of the submissions. ZCG has discussed the benefits of the project having well defined goals like exploring privacy within a user-friendly explorer. ZCG would like to see this work continue and are willing to find this project if it continues to focus on more of the user-friendly blockchain explorer features and continue to explore providing insight using the cross-chain transaction viewing with their Near integration which already exists on their dashboard. Hanh: I wanted to ask them to have feature parity with the current block explorer which also means working well. They have a testnet so it’s fine. The mempool stuff was broken last time we checked and fees should be calculated properly (dunno if they are, the current explorer has some issues with them sometimes). They don’t need to have the decryption via viewing key because I think that’s broken in the current block explorer and the inbox scanner. I’m particularly interested because this code is easier to maintain than the stuff we have currently. Zerodartz: I like that it’s Zebra powered block explorer and it has some features that are interesting, like privacy risks tool and privacy dashboard and stuff although I don’t consider we should fund the privacy score feature because it’s super hard for it to be accurate. But otherwise, I think they have done a good job with the explorer so far, and I’d like them to continue maintaining it. Hanh: They have a list of things that are publicly available today and so I think we can remove the inbox scanner because I don’t think anybody uses that and it takes forever anyways. We can add the mempool explorer. Other than that, it seems pretty about right. DecentralistDan: So we’re going back to them to tweak milestones, adding what Hanh just said, and removing the privacy score API as one of the milestones. Gguy: Yeah. I’d also be interested in them leaning into some of the extra features which we haven’t seen before like the Near Intents support. Hanh: There are a few additional tools in the current explorer that are nice to have, such as “decode binary tx”, “broadcast”, decode UA, … Gguy: Going forward we’ll reach out to this applicant to let them know what we think their priorities should be. Remains open.

@Kenbak Please update your application: startup funding + milestone funding must equal the total budget amount (right now you're $14,700 over so either drop startup funding or one milestone). Thanks.
