What is NULL?

NULL is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency where every transaction is shielded. There is no transparent pool and no opt-in privacy: shielded is the only way to transact.

Most privacy coins make privacy optional. In practice this means only a small fraction of transactions are private, the anonymity set stays small, and mixing transparent and shielded usage leaks metadata. NULL removes the choice: if every transaction is private, everyone's privacy is stronger.

The entire codebase is written from scratch in Rust — not a fork.


Key features

• Shielded-only transactions — no transparent addresses, no metadata leaks from mixed usage
• Zero-knowledge proofs — Halo2
• Built in Rust from the ground up — memory safety, modern tooling, clean codebase
• Privacy stack — NULL is more than a coin: a disposable email service is already live, more tools are coming

The NULL privacy stack

I checked out mail.nullnet.sh. It's a convenient and useful service, thank you!

I think it has one drawback, though. It's technically part of the NULL project, but it has no connection to the NULL cryptocurrency. If you're building services like this, it might make sense to add some premium features that can only be paid for with NULL. That way, they would truly become part of the ecosystem.

For example, in the email service, where a mailbox lasts for one hour and can be extended for another hour by clicking a button in the interface, you could add an option to extend its lifetime for longer periods (so users wouldn't have to click the button every hour), but require payment in NULL for that.

It could be just a symbolic amount. The main point is to create a connection to the core project.

Thanks for trying mail.nullnet.sh and for the feedback, glad you find it useful!

You're absolutely right, and that's exactly the direction we want to go: the services should be tied to the NULL coin and give it real utility inside the ecosystem. Extended mailbox lifetime paid in NULL is a great example of that.

The problem right now is practical: NULL isn't listed on any exchange yet. Until it is, payments in NULL can't be converted into anything, and running these services (servers, infrastructure, development) has real costs. So for now, any paid feature needs to be paid with something that has a market price, so we can actually fund the project.

Once NULL gets listed, we'll add NULL as a payment option for premium features, so every service on nullnet.sh becomes a real use case for the coin.

Thanks again, this kind of feedback really helps!
