Iron Fish Foundation
Fostering the growth of safe privacy
With mainnet launch on April 20th 2023, our ecosystem expanded and a new independent entity, the Iron Fish Foundation, was created.
The Foundation guides Iron Fish towards premier crypto privacy. Through partnerships, grants, and events, it boosts ecosystem growth, emphasizing community-driven governance and fund allocation.

Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is responsible for general oversight of the Iron Fish Foundation and weighs in on decisions including, but not limited to, governance, large grants, and ensuring that Iron Fish provides privacy to protect the crypto of everyday users while continuing to deter bad actors. The Foundation is actively adding Board Members alongside an advisory board of experts.
Our Principles
01.
Encryption is the Future of Crypto
Privacy is a fundamental right, and yet everyday people give away personal information — often without even realizing it. We empower users to decide when and how to share their data, by ensuring all transactions are encrypted.
We do not compromise on protection — using zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs) and the highest industry standards for encryption.
02.
We Build, Together
As a decentralized, open-source network, Iron Fish relies on an engaged community to support protocol development and raise awareness of privacy as a social good. Our community is the heart of our platform.
03.
Common Sense Compliance
To date, crypto privacy projects have either failed to offer necessary levels of protection or more often, they've fallen on the wrong side of public authorities. Iron Fish addresses this impasse with a leading edge platform with built-in compliance controls.
