Vault Types

Vaults are the foundation of Privacy Pump.

Every action inside Privacy Pump happens through a vault.

Vaults allow users to store funds, manage treasury activity, create proposals, and use Privacy Pump’s privacy features.

Privacy Pump currently supports two vault types:

• Personal Vaults
• Private Multisigs

Both vault types use the same privacy infrastructure, but they are designed for different use cases.

Personal Vault

A Personal Vault is designed for a single user.

It provides a private space to organize funds and use Privacy Pump’s privacy features without involving other participants.

A Personal Vault is ideal for:

• Individual users
• Traders
• Long-term holders
• Developers
• Anyone who wants greater control over their financial privacy

With a Personal Vault, you remain the sole decision maker.

No approvals from other members are required.

What Can A Personal Vault Do?

A Personal Vault can:

• Receive deposits
• Hold treasury funds
• Use Private Deposits
• Use Protected Withdrawals
• Organize assets
• Use Privacy Pump routing features
• Access private communication features

Personal Vaults provide the simplest way to use Privacy Pump.

Private Multisig

A Private Multisig is designed for multiple participants.

Instead of one person controlling the treasury, actions require approval from multiple members.

This creates shared control over treasury funds and important vault actions.

Private Multisigs are commonly used by:

• Teams
• Communities
• DAOs
• Project treasuries
• Organizations
• Investment groups

What Can A Private Multisig Do?

A Private Multisig can:

• Hold shared treasury funds
• Create proposals
• Manage vault members
• Configure approval thresholds
• Use Private Deposits
• Use Protected Withdrawals
• Use private communication channels
• Coordinate treasury decisions securely

Every important action can be reviewed before execution.

Which Vault Type Should You Choose?

Choose a Personal Vault if:

• You are managing your own funds
• You do not need approvals from others
• You want the simplest experience

Choose a Private Multisig if:

• Multiple people control the treasury
• You need approval workflows
• You are managing community or team funds
• You want shared governance

Same Privacy Infrastructure

Although Personal Vaults and Private Multisigs behave differently, both are built on the same privacy foundation.

Both vault types can use:

• Privacy Pump ZK Pool
• Private Deposits
• Protected Withdrawals
• Private Routing
• Private Communication
• Future privacy upgrades

The difference is not privacy.

The difference is governance.
