.@zama is on a mission to make 1 in every 10 blockchain transactions private. Here’s how they're already achieving this.
1. Compute Without Decrypting
With Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), data stays encrypted even while it’s being processed. Balances, logic, and identities stay hidden yet the blockchain still runs everything correctly.
2. Zama's fhEVM:
Privacy Inside Ethereum’s Core
Zama built a fully homomorphic version of the EVM. Developers write normal Solidity, but execution happens on encrypted data. Privacy becomes part of the workflow, not an add-on.
3. Integrate, Don’t Compete
Instead of launching a new chain, Zama plugs FHE into existing ones (L1s and L2s). That’s how confidential transactions scale fast through compatibility, not fragmentation.
4. Making FHE Practical
They’re tackling the old FHE bottlenecks with optimized cryptography, hybrid systems, and hardware acceleration. The result: encrypted smart contracts that actually perform.
