Simple summary for non-tech people:
The SHADOW project (account @hoodshadowrh) lets you prove that you hold a minimum amount of private cryptocurrency (Zcash/ZEC or Monero/XMR) without revealing your exact balance, wallet address, transaction history, or private keys.
Easy example:
You want to show someone “I have at least X amount of private coins” (for example, for a loan, partnership, or use on Robinhood Chain), but you don’t want them to know exactly how much you have or see your wallet.
→ SHADOW creates a shareable digital “certificate” (a proof) in the form of a file, link, or QR code.
The other person can verify the certificate and confirm you meet the threshold, while your private details stay hidden.
Key points:
Your coins never leave your wallet.
It uses cryptography (zero-knowledge / threshold proofs) to keep everything private.
You can link the proof to a Robinhood Chain account to make sharing and verification easier.
In short: Prove “I have enough money” while keeping the exact amount and your wallet completely private.
