Regulator API

Substrate. Aurora-Lattice (32-axis sovereign) + Aleo ZK proofs. Footprint. All 11 Gateway Nanopayment chains.

This is a read-only API for regulators, gated by a warrant. Every query returns Aurora-Lattice-signed evidence, like receipts, agent identities, and settlement traces. Aleo zero-knowledge proofs keep it bounded, so a regulator sees exactly what their warrant covers and nothing more. It's built for a world where FATF and the EU AI Act mean every agent transaction needs an audit trail that holds up.

How it plugs in.

regulator_query.py
# GET /circle/regulator/query (warrant-attested)
query = regulator.warrant(
    case_id="FinCEN-2026-04812",
    scope="agent:0xsuspect... · 30d",
    aleo_proof=warrant_proof,                # ZK-bounded
)

resp = hive.regulator_api(query)
# Returns Aurora-Lattice-signed receipt set, jurisdiction-bounded
assert resp.substrate == "aurora-lattice-v1"
assert resp.axes == 32
assert resp.aleo_verified == True

What Circle gets.

  • A government-tier pitch: "Circle is the regulator-ready stablecoin agent platform."
  • Aleo ZK proofs make sure a regulator can't go fishing. They see only what the warrant covers.
  • Aurora-Lattice signing means anyone can check a disclosed receipt on their own.
  • A real edge over every other agent-payment path: regulator access is built in, not bolted on.
FastAPI surface + Aleo ZK stub already in the public hive-circle-regulator package. Delivery: ~60 days; joint pursuit on government contracts.
Ready when Circle is.
