Let me explain the similarity between the transition to HTTPS for the global network and the arrival of privacy protocols, such as @zama, in the blockchain industry. The way I see it: we’re still in the HTTP era of blockchains. Everything is plaintext — balances, positions, flows. Great for composability, terrible if you don’t want your entire financial life to be a public dataset for anyone who can do any block explorer. The web went through this already. Early internet was pure HTTP, then we quietly got HTTPS as a default. Same websites, same UX, same protocols on the surface — just with encryption baked into the transport so you don’t leak your life to every router on the path. FHE plays that HTTPS role, but for blockchains. You still get verifiable state, shared liquidity, contract composability — but the sensitive parts (balances, order sizes, salaries, votes) are encrypted by default. Contracts compute, the network verifies, the raw numbers stay yours. That’s the mental shift with things like Zama: it’s not “a new privacy chain”, it’s a confidentiality layer you can plug into existing L1/L2s. Like dropping TLS under the same old web stack — you don’t rebuild the internet, you just stop broadcasting everyone’s data in cleartext. #ZamaCreatorProgram
