Conceal Network is a peer-to-peer privacy-preserving network made for Private DeFi and Encrypted Communications. Conceal offers protocol-level private transactions, blockchain deposits, and on-chain encrypted messages. These unique functionalities make it effortless for everyday users to manage their finances and communicate securely and privately.
Conceal provides the ability for individuals to communicate and financially interact with each other in a totally anonymous manner. Two persons may exchange messages, conduct business, and transact funds without ever knowing the true name, or legal identity, of the other. Interactions over networks are untraceable, via cryptographic protocols with nearly perfect assurance against any tampering.
₡CCX mimics the properties of cash. Nobody knows how or where you spend your folding cash. You go to the ATM, take out money and you can buy an ice-cream or that pretty old chair at the neighborhood yard sale and there is no record of it anywhere, unlike with a credit card. These powerful privacy-preserving abilities will act as a critical bulwark against the inevitable rise of Panopticon digital money. They may be our only hope. The end of cash means the end of free choice. That’s where Conceal comes into the picture.
A lot of people say there is no killer app for crypto. They’re wrong. We’ve figured out how to mimic cash in an environment that is entirely focused on privacy: The biggest feature of cash is that it’s really hard to track. In other words, anonymity is the main feature of cash. Only the two parties that conducted business know it happened. Conceal (₡CCX) is the death of blockchain analysis. Conceal brings back the true anonymity of cash.
Conceal is open-source, community driven and truly decentralized. No one owns it, everyone can take part.

The build process can consume upto 13GB of memory and may fail if enough resources are not available. In some build scenarios it may be necessary to increase the size of the SWAP to compensate for less RAM.
For example if you have 8GB of RAM, then your SWAP size should be 5GB
- Ubuntu / Debian
sudo fallocate -l 5G /swapfile
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile- Rasberry Pi OS
sudo dphys-swapfile swapoff
sudo nano /etc/dphys-swapfile
CONF_SWAPSIZE=5120
sudo nano /sbin/dphys-swapfile
#CONF_MAXSWAP=2048
sudo dphys-swapfile setup
sudo dphys-swapfile swapon- You will need the following dependencies to build the Conceal CLI: boost, cmake, git, gcc, g++, python, and make:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y build-essential python3-dev git cmake libboost-all-dev- On Linux Systems:
git clone https://github.com/ConcealNetwork/conceal-core
cd conceal-core
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
makeIf the build is successful the binaries will be in the src folder.
Tested on a Raspberry Pi 4 with Raspberry Pi OS (32/64bit) images.
Other ARM CPU/OS combinations should be possible if the CPU supports Neon/AES.
- Follow the Linux / Ubuntu procedure to build.
- Install Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition
When installing Visual Studio, you need to install Desktop development with C++ and the MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools components. The option to install the v142 build tools can be found by expanding the "Desktop development with C++" node on the right. You will need this for the project to build correctly.
- Install CMake
- Install Boost, ensuring you download the installer for MSVC 14.2.
The instructions will be given for Boost 1.78.0. Using a different version should be supported but you will have to change the version where required.
- From the start menu, open 'x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for vs2019' or run "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\Common7\Tools\VsMSBuildCmd.bat" from any command prompt.
git clone https://github.com/ConcealNetwork/conceal-core
cd conceal-core
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DBOOST_ROOT="c:\local\boost_1_78_0"
msbuild concealX.sln /p:Configuration=Release /mIf the build is successful the binaries will be in the src/Release folder.
- In order to install prerequisites, XCode and Homebrew needs to be installed. Once both are ready, open Terminal app and run the following command to install additional tools:
xcode-select --install-
On newer macOS versions (v10.14 and higher) this step is done through Software Update in System Preferences.
-
After that, proceed with installing dependencies:
brew install git cmake boost- When all dependencies are installed, build Conceal Core binaries:
git clone https://github.com/ConcealNetwork/conceal-core
cd conceal-core
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
makeIf the build is successful the binaries will be located in the src folder.
