## Overview

Polygon PoS has no native privacy, but it has one of the deeper third-party ecosystems. The official Polygon wallet added a Privately Send option in May 2026, powered by Hinkal's shielded pools for USDC and USDT, alongside Railgun and Fluidkey. Those routes are KYT gated with a discretionary kill switch and small anonymity sets. Bubble runs here through the Soda SDK, and real confidential transfers are verifiable on Polygonscan today: the amount field holds two ciphertexts and nothing more. Polygon zkEVM, worth noting, was wound down: its Mainnet Beta sequencer stopped producing blocks on July 3, 2026, with an asset-claim window open through December 2027.
