Building Privacy Infrastructure

Privacy Through Non-Existence

We build privacy-first technology infrastructure that treats non-existence, not secrecy, as the strongest form of privacy. Our protocols and platforms enable true digital sovereignty.

Our Mission

Redefining Digital Privacy

Phantom Systems is a research and infrastructure company building the next generation of privacy-preserving technology. We believe the strongest form of data protection is ensuring data never exists in a form that can be found.

Our flagship technology, Ghost Protocol, creates cryptographic proofs without storing data. This fundamental shift from "hiding data" to "eliminating data" enables guarantees impossible with traditional privacy systems.

Our Products

Three interconnected technologies working together to create a complete privacy infrastructure

Ghost Protocol

A commit-once, reveal-once privacy primitive that creates cryptographic proofs without storing data. The foundation of our privacy infrastructure.

Zero-knowledge commitments
One-time revelations
Data non-existence

Ghostcoin

Privacy-focused cryptocurrency built on Ghost Protocol. Digital cash with true anonymity—value that cannot be frozen or tracked.

Bearer instrument semantics
No transaction history
Censorship resistant

Umbraline

Dedicated Avalanche L1 subnet optimized for privacy operations. Low-cost, high-performance infrastructure for Ghost Protocol applications.

Avalanche Snowman consensus
Optimized gas costs
Privacy-aware infrastructure
Core Technology

Non-Existence as a Security Property

The Hierarchy of Data Protection

1
Policy
Can be changed or overridden
2
Access Control
Can be bypassed or misconfigured
3
Encryption
Can be broken or keys compromised
4
Non-Existence
Nothing to access, decrypt, or compel

Commit Once, Reveal Once

1
Commit
Generate cryptographic hash without storing data
2
Hidden State
Commitment exists but reveals nothing
3
Reveal or Silence
One-time reveal or permanent obscurity

What This Enables

  • Value that cannot be frozen or seized
  • Access tokens that cannot be revoked
  • Credentials that cannot be leaked
  • Disclosures that cannot be premature
