We know that while blockchain solves the trust problem through its transparent ledger mechanism, this poses an adoption barrier for applications that handle sensitive information such as financial assets and personal identities. Many potentially high-value scenarios are difficult to realize on-chain due to the lack of effective privacy protection mechanisms, and this contradiction has created a demand for technical solutions that balance verifiability and confidentiality.
On December 30, 2025, Zama Protocol launched on the Ethereum mainnet . It is a cross-chain privacy layer built on top of existing public blockchains like Ethereum. Its core innovation lies in integrating technologies such as Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), enabling smart contracts to directly process encrypted data while maintaining the public verifiability of the computation process. In this way, Zama Protocol attempts to provide end-to-end privacy protection for on-chain transactions and application states while maintaining the advantages of transparent auditing of blockchains.
