Why the conviction moved

  Strengthened +6

  Miden launched its network with USDCx, a USDC-backed stablecoin private by default with selective disclosure to auditors and counterparties. Pairing confidentiality with an auditor-facing disclosure path is precisely the institutional framing the thesis describes — privacy sold as a compliance-compatible prerequisite, not an evasion tool.

  Strengthened +5

  Miden set out a private-by-default finance stack anchored on USDCx, a stablecoin issued natively on Miden against USDC in reserve contracts that Circle deploys and operates directly. A major regulated issuer putting its reserve contracts on a confidential execution layer is the institutional validation the thesis predicts, not a niche privacy-community launch.
