people usually don't stop to think that privacy is really about control - deciding what gets revealed, when, and to who.
And this control is exactly what gives some builders an advantage over others.
Not every app needs it btw. If you’re deploying a meme token or a basic DEX fork, transparency is fine
But in niches where user trust depends on keeping intent hidden, selective transparency is non-negotiable
We've all seen analogies with voting
Public voting sounds fair, until you realize it exposes people to a lot of pressure, or bribery.
But if you seal the votes until tally, the participation looks very different.
So even outside of crypto native use cases, privacy is helpful.
Apps that offer selective transparency will always be harder to compete with.
Builders shouldn't need to care about the cryptography under the hood. They just need to know that data is a valuable asset, and the ability to keep things sealed until the right moment is an edge
Bold steps are underway with @zama, be ready!
