Zama Partners with Conduit to Scale Confidential Smart Contracts
Blog post from Zama
The Zama Protocol addresses a major barrier to blockchain adoption by enabling fully confidential smart contracts, crucial for traditional finance, enterprises, and governments that require data privacy. By leveraging Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) technology, Zama allows computations on encrypted data without decryption, facilitating privacy without sacrificing blockchain's benefits. Partnering with Conduit, a provider of specialized infrastructure for encrypted computation, Zama operates a dedicated Arbitrum rollup to ensure optimal performance and cost efficiency, with transactions paid for in $ZAMA tokens. This strategic partnership not only enhances infrastructure capabilities but also integrates confidential smart contracts with standard ones, promoting liquidity and ecosystem synergy. The upcoming Zama mainnet will offer Conduit chains access to confidential computing through the Conduit Marketplace, simplifying the deployment of private smart contracts and marking a significant step toward scalable blockchain confidentiality.
