<p><a href="https://x.com/Zebec_HQ" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Zebec_HQ</a> has made Aleo-native payment streaming live in the Zebec SuperApp, with streams denominated in USDCx and USAD on Aleo (<a href="https://x.com/AleoHQ" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@AleoHQ</a>). On Aleo, streams can be set to private, so wallet addresses and amounts stay out of public view, unlike on most blockchains where they are visible to anyone.</p>
<h2 id="how-the-private-streams-work">How the private streams work</h2>
<p>Payment streaming releases funds to a recipient continuously rather than in a single transfer, a model often used for payroll and recurring payments. Zebec's public code repository for the Aleo stream program says <a href="https://github.com/Zebec-Fintech-Labs/zebec_aleo_stream" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">every stream can run in public or private mode, chosen at creation</a>. In private mode, sender, receiver, amount and schedule are kept in encrypted records, and only a stream's existence and coarse status are public. Privacy is therefore an option for each stream rather than a default for all of them.</p>
<p>The repository also shows how private streams are found: a wallet scans its unspent token records rather than reading a public on-chain list.</p>
<p>Private transfers of USDCx and USAD also carry a compliance check. They require a zero-knowledge proof that the sender is not on the stablecoin's freeze list. This comes from the stablecoins' transfer rules rather than from a Zebec design choice, and Zebec's Aleo SDK implements it for both tokens, according to the same repository.</p>
<h2 id="the-stablecoins-behind-the-streams">The stablecoins behind the streams</h2>
<p>USDCx is live on Aleo mainnet. <a href="https://aleo.org/payroll/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Aleo describes it as a dollar backed one-to-one by USDC and powered by Circle's xReserve</a>. USAD is issued by Paxos Labs and, per <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260211924754/en/Paxos-Labs-Aleo-Network-Foundation-Announce-USAD-Stablecoin-Live-on-Aleo-Mainnet" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">a Paxos Labs and Aleo Network Foundation release on Business Wire</a>, is a dollar-pegged stablecoin backed one-to-one by USDG reserves. USDG is the Global Dollar stablecoin issued by Paxos. The same release says USAD <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260211924754/en/Paxos-Labs-Aleo-Network-Foundation-Announce-USAD-Stablecoin-Live-on-Aleo-Mainnet" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">encrypts wallet addresses and transaction amounts end-to-end</a>.</p>
<p>The streaming launch follows Zebec's earlier Aleo Card, which lets users spend <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24ALEO&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$ALEO</a>. At that launch, Zebec listed USDCx and USAD support as coming soon. The new streaming product delivers on that support.</p>
