Avalanche Gets A Privacy Boost: AvaCloud Launches eERC For Confidential Transactions

Source Bitcoinist

Avalanche, one of the leading blockchain ecosystems powering decentralized finance (DeFi) and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, is making major strides in on-chain privacy. AvaCloud, a top blockchain solutions provider in the Avalanche ecosystem, has officially launched eERC (Encrypted ERC) — a new privacy-focused token standard designed to support confidential transactions across both permissioned and permissionless blockchains.

The eERC protocol introduces unprecedented privacy capabilities to Avalanche by leveraging cutting-edge cryptographic techniques. These innovations enable on-chain token balances and transaction amounts to remain private while ensuring compliance and auditability when necessary. The launch marks a significant step forward in enabling privacy for DeFi, institutional finance, and enterprise blockchain solutions.

Unlike standard ERC-20 tokens, which expose all transaction data on public ledgers, eERCs on Avalanche offer confidentiality without compromising performance or compatibility. Developers and users can issue privacy-preserving assets while remaining fully EVM-compatible — a major advantage for scalable, regulatory-compliant blockchain applications.

Avalanche Unlocks Use Cases With eERC Privacy Standard

With the launch of eERC on Avalanche, AvaCloud is opening the door to powerful real-world applications that demand both privacy and compliance. This new token standard enables developers and institutions to build decentralized solutions in sectors that were previously limited by the transparency of public ledgers.

From tokenized Real World Asset (RWA) trading to enterprise collaboration, eERC is designed to serve use cases where data confidentiality is non-negotiable. For example, financial institutions can now issue privacy-preserving stablecoins, while healthcare or government entities can securely transfer sensitive records without revealing balances or amounts on-chain. In decentralized finance (DeFi), platforms can offer confidential trading and lending experiences without sacrificing auditability, thanks to eERC’s built-in selective decryption capabilities.

Nicholas Mussallem, CEO of AvaCloud, emphasized the strategic importance of this innovation: “eERC represents a major step forward in blockchain privacy. We are committed to providing solutions that empower users and enterprises to leverage the benefits of blockchain technology while maintaining the highest levels of data confidentiality.”

Avalanche’s high throughput and compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) make it the ideal network to deploy privacy-focused applications. With eERC, Avalanche becomes not only a leader in DeFi and RWA tokenization but also a privacy-first ecosystem for the next wave of decentralized innovation.

AVAX Price Analysis: Strong Weekly Rebound From Key Support

Avalanche (AVAX) has posted a strong 15.34% rebound this week, currently trading around $21.13 after briefly dipping below $18.00. The chart shows that AVAX continues to respect a long-term horizontal support zone between $16 and $18, which previously acted as the launchpad for major rallies in late 2023 and early 2024. Despite prolonged downside pressure, buyers are stepping in to defend this level, suggesting accumulation is taking place.

AVAX is still trading below the 50-week and 100-week simple moving averages (SMAs), currently sitting around $26.73 and $28.13, respectively. These remain critical resistance zones to watch. A weekly close above $28 would confirm a potential trend reversal and open the door for a retest of the $36–$40 range.

Volume has increased notably during this week’s bounce, showing stronger conviction among bulls. The move coincides with the recent announcement of the eERC privacy standard on Avalanche, which could be fueling renewed investor interest. If AVAX maintains momentum, a sustained rally may follow.
