🔐 Orbinum's Private Vault no longer uses EIP-712. EVM wallets now always unlock it with Sign-In With Ethereum (SIWE). The sign-in is bound to app.orbinum.network: your wallet shows exactly which site is asking, and flags any other site that requests the same signature. One signature. One site. Your whole private identity. 🔹 How your private identity is built from one signature → orbinumnetwork.medium.com/on… #Orbinum #Testnet #Privacy #SIWE #Ethereum #Web3 #Crypto #Blockchain #Community

🔐 On Orbinum, one signature is your whole private identity. EVM wallets are moving to Sign-In With Ethereum. Picking a wallet for the Shielded Pool? Choose a signature bound to the app's origin, one that refuses fake sites. Safest today: a Substrate (sr25519) account in @wearetalisman or @subwalletapp. 🔹 What to know before choosing → orbinumnetwork.medium.com/on…

⚙️ Runtime Upgrade: Spec 20 is live on Orbinum Testnet (runtime 0.6.0). Solana wallets now work on Orbinum. Every wallet signature is readable and harder to forge, the EVM gets a round of upgrades, and fees are fairer. What's new, one by one 🧵👇 #Orbinum #Testnet #ZK #Privacy #Solana #Web3 #Crypto #Blockchain

🛡️ Validator onboarding is open. Now they can become part of the network for real: applications for the Orbinum Testnet validator set are open. Testnet validators are the ones we will know. Uptime, responsiveness, how a node behaves when the network is under load, none of that can be assessed from an application form. It is earned by running one. The operators who secure testnet are the operators we will turn to first for mainnet. 📋 What it takes: 🔹 A server with dedicated CPU, ZK verification runs inside block execution 🔹 Session keys registered on-chain 🔹 Your node visible on telemetry, this one is required 🔹 An email to [email protected] 🔗 docs.orbinum.network/validat… We also rewrote the node documentation from scratch. Everything about running a node now lives in one place, whichever role you want: 🔗 docs.orbinum.network/nodes 🙌 To everyone already running a node: this is the step we told you was coming. #Orbinum #Testnet #Validators #Nodes #Infrastructure #ZK #Privacy #Web3 #Docker #Mainnet #BuildInPublic

🔐 Talisman now pays more. Link a Talisman Substrate address to your Orbinum account and every on-chain quest pays +5 credits. It is also the safest way to use Orbinum. Your private identity comes from an origin-bound signature we built with the Talisman team: the wallet supplies the origin, not the page asking for it, so a hostile site gets different bytes and whatever it derives controls nothing. An EVM signature cannot do that. Substrate can. 🔹 Install Talisman → talisman.xyz/ 🔹 Create a new Substrate address 🔹 In your account, open the Wallet tab and update your linked wallet 🔹 Sign in again and start earning +5 per quest Your private notes stay with the wallet that holds them, so move funds yourself before switching. You can switch back anytime. 🙌 Thanks to @wearetalisman for building this with us. #Orbinum #Talisman #Substrate #ZK #Privacy #Web3 #Wallet #Quests

📡 Orbinum Testnet: infrastructure update. We have been working on network architecture and node infrastructure to improve stability, and we just expanded Orbinum's own validator infrastructure with additional nodes. More validators means more fault tolerance: the network now keeps finalizing even if one of them goes down. 🔗 telemetry.orbinum.network And thank you to everyone already running a node with us. Several community nodes are on the dashboard right now, and validator onboarding is getting closer, those nodes will officially become part of the Orbinum network. 🛠️ Not running one yet? Spin up your own RPC node and test against the real network: 🔗 github.com/orbinum/node-depl… Copy an .env.example, fill in a few variables, docker compose up. #Orbinum #Testnet #Validators #Nodes #Infrastructure #ZK #Privacy #Web3 #Docker #BuildInPublic

📡 Orbinum Testnet telemetry is live. Our nodes are up and running on the new setup, all of them deployed from node-deploy. See them here: 🔗 telemetry.orbinum.network Block height, finalized blocks, peers, propagation time and location, live for every node on the network. 🛠️ You can run one too. Validator onboarding is coming. In the meantime, spin up your own RPC node and test against the real network: 🔗 github.com/orbinum/node-depl… Copy an .env.example, fill in a few variables, docker compose up. The image ships from GHCR and the chain spec is already in the repo, so there is nothing to build. Your node joins the testnet and shows up on the dashboard next to ours. Spin one up and tell us what breaks. #Orbinum #Testnet #Validators #Nodes #Infrastructure #ZK #Privacy #Web3 #Docker #BuildInPublic

⚡ Four weeks of Orbinum Testnet. Week three doubled down. Week four kept the pace: 🔹 400,000+ blocks produced 🔹 132,000+ transactions, up 45% from week three 🔹 244,000+ commitment leaves in the Merkle tree, up 58% 🔹 91,000+ ORB in the shielded pool, up 36% Four straight weeks of compounding growth. The shielded pool has grown every single week since day one, and the tree is now 244K leaves deep. 🙌 Four weeks. Zero interruptions. And that's on you. Every transaction you send, every note you shield, every bug you report tells us something we couldn't learn any other way. Real usage at real scale is what exposes the rough edges, and you've been finding them for us week after week. That feedback is going straight back into the protocol: faster flows, smoother wallet experience, fewer surprises. This is exactly what a testnet is for, and it's why Orbinum will reach mainnet solid instead of hopeful. Thank you for building it with us. Want to verify the numbers yourself?

🧾 Payment Slips for private transfers. Private transfers just got easier to receive. When you send from your Private Vault, you now get a payment slip, share it, and the recipient imports their funds instantly. No chain scanning on their side. How it works: 🔹 Make a private transfer from your vault 🔹 A payment slip is generated with the transfer 🔹 Share it with the recipient, any channel you like 🔹 They import it and the funds appear. Done. The slip holds only what the recipient needs to detect the note, no spending keys, so it grants nothing on its own. 📖 How payment slips work → docs.orbinum.network/private… 🔗Try it → app.orbinum.network/wallet/s… Private by default. Instant by design. #Orbinum #Testnet #ZK #Privacy #Web3 #Wallet #BuildInPublic

🔒 Runtime upgrade is live on Orbinum testnet. Security hardening. A batch of audit fixes landed in the shielded pool. Full detail in the PR 👇 🔗 github.com/orbinum/node/pull… 🔹 No more shield minimum. You used to need a whole token. Now shield any non-zero amount, down to a single unit. 🔹 Note backups. We removed automatic scanning. Export your notes as a JSON file and import them on any of your devices, no chain scan. The backup holds only public data, no spending keys, so it grants nothing on its own. Rescan still works from the chain, but now it's a manual fallback, for lost storage or a fresh device, not the default. 📖 How recovery works → docs.orbinum.network/private… 🔗 Try it → app.orbinum.network/wallet/s… Private by default. Recoverable by design. #Orbinum #Testnet #ZK #Privacy #Web3 #Wallet #BuildInPublic

✂️ Less surface. More focus. We just removed the private_link circuit and the entire account-mapping implementation from Orbinum. Runtime upgraded, circuit retired, on-chain registry purged, npm package cleaned. Why remove a feature? Because focus is a feature. 🔹 Every circuit we ship is attack surface: more audits, more maintenance, more places for vulnerabilities to hide 🔹 Cross-chain identity linking was pulling energy away from what actually matters 🔹 Our core is the shielded pool, and it deserves 100% of our ZK effort And here's the thing: the shielded pool already does the connecting. Today you can send a private transfer from an EVM address to an SS58 (Substrate) address, seamlessly. Tomorrow? Maybe a Solana address. The pool is the bridge, no extra circuits, no identity mapping, no added surface. That's the direction we're doubling down on. The rest of that effort goes where you feel it: solving real problems like fast note recovery, hardening the proving pipeline, and scaling the pool. Three circuits. One mission. Shield, transfer, unshield. Private by default, across address types. 📦 Updated package: npmjs.com/package/@orbinum/c… The testnet keeps running, the pool keeps growing, and the codebase just got lighter and safer. Cut deep, build focused. #Orbinum #Testnet #ZK #Privacy #Web3 #Crypto #Blockchain #DeFi #Security #Interoperability #BuildInPublic

⚡ Three weeks of Orbinum Testnet. Week two accelerated. Week three doubled down: 🔹 300,000+ blocks produced 🔹 91,000+ transactions, up 69% from week two 🔹 154,000+ commitment leaves in the Merkle tree, up 103% 🔹 67,000+ ORB in the shielded pool, up 131% The shielded pool didn't just grow. It more than doubled. In seven days, you added more ORB to the pool than in the first two weeks combined. 📈 But growth comes with a challenge, and we're facing it head-on. As commitment leaves pile up, note scanning gets slower: every wallet has to sift through more and more of the tree to find its own notes. This is the problem every privacy blockchain before us has hit, and none has truly solved. It's our top priority: a unique solution that recovers the notes of any address instantly, no matter how big the tree gets. The multi-tree forest removed the ceiling on capacity. This removes the ceiling on speed. Want to verify the numbers yourself? Everything is public: 🔍 explorer.testnet.orbinum.net… Check the Overview and ZK Pool sections.
