Beldex introduced the Obscura hardfork, which went live on December 7, 2025, at block height 4939540.
The upgrade includes multiple refinements, but its core improvement is the integration of Bulletproofs++.
Bulletproofs++ are non-interactive zero-knowledge range proofs which are approx. 30-40% more efficient than Bulletproofs.
Bulletproofs allow Beldex masternodes to verify that transaction amounts are valid without the knowledge of the value of the actual amounts.
