This introduces a groundbreaking cross-chain protocol designed to enable confidential smart contracts across various Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchains. This system achieves end-to-end encryption for on-chain applications by leveraging Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) for computations, Threshold Multi-Party Computation (MPC) for key management and decryption, and Zero-Knowledge Proofs of Knowledge (ZKPoK) for input verification. The protocol aims to address the inherent transparency challenges of blockchains, facilitating a wide range of secure applications such as confidential token transfers, swaps, decentralized AI, and voting, while integrating seamlessly with existing development tools like Solidity. It further distinguishes itself from other privacy-enhancing techniques like Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), and Multi-Party Computation (MPC) by enabling computation directly on encrypted data without revealing sensitive information.
