Pirate Chain (ARRR) Project Update
Get Caught Up
-
Komodo acquisition and Pirate Chain's independence: Gleec acquired the Komodo technology stack, including its cross-chain framework and AtomicDEX infrastructure 23. Pirate Chain confirmed it remains fully independent and unaffected, with its existing dPoW (Delayed-Proof-of-Work, an optional security layer) continuing to operate normally, and support for ARRR swaps through the Komodo Wallet (AtomicDEX) continuing as before 23. This matters because it reassures holders that the project's security and interoperability are not disrupted by external organizational changes.
-
December 2025 development priorities: The project outlined two primary priorities for early 2026 — launching a unified light wallet across all platforms and releasing the public testnet for the Orchard upgrade 45. The unified wallet, led by developer Oswald, aims for faster releases and a consistent user experience, while Core Developer Forge is finalizing the Orchard public testnet and urging the community to test it extensively 5. These efforts point toward improved usability and a significant privacy/functionality upgrade.
-
Hardware cold storage wallet: Development is underway on a third-party, ARRR-only "Ciphercurrency" cold storage wallet by community member Warelock, targeted around a $200 price point 45. A dedicated hardware wallet would give holders a purpose-built self-custody option, strengthening the project's privacy-first positioning.
Biggest Stories of 2025

Pirate Profile
Pirate Profile
On August 29th, 2018, developers in the Komodo community piloted an independent asset chain with the technology offered by Komodo Platform. Pirate Chain harnesses the power of tools such as Delayed Proof of Work (dPoW) from Komodo, zero-knowledge proof (zk-SNARKs) transactions from ZCash, and the rule of enforced private-only transactions by Monero. Whereas many other “privacy” coins have optional privacy features, Pirate (ARRR) is a 100% private send cryptocurrency, as well as the first z transaction only chain. ZK-Snarks technology (zero-knowledge cryptography) is utilized to completely shield peer to peer transactions. This means that transactions are 100% private all the time. This has created the largest shielded private pool of funds of any privacy coin, including Zcash and Monero. Pirate prevents 51% attacks by utilizing Komodo’s dPoW, meaning its blocks are notarized onto both Komodo and Bitcoin blockchains. Simply stated, attempts to mount a Sybil attack against Pirate would have to overcome the combined hashrates of Bitcoin, Komodo, and Pirate. This aims to create a high cost of attack to prevent malicious actors. On top of that, Pirate started with a fair launch, no ICO, no premine, and zero dev fees.
