Introduction

THE PROBLEM: In Web3 and blockchain-based systems, user data like account balances, transactions, and on-chain activity are fully transparent and public by default.

While this transparency enables censorship resistance and auditability, it comes at the cost of user privacy.

This status quo leaves everyday users with an all-or-nothing choice when interacting on blockchains - either fully expose all your data publicly, or don't participate at all.

There are many situations where users may desire more nuance and control over what information they share and what remains private.

OUR SOLUTION:

Our platform introduces the concept of user-controlled selective disclosure of on-chain data. Users can choose to selectively disclose certain account information and transaction details, while keeping other data points private For example, a user could showcase their NFT publicly to build their brand, while keeping their account balances or transaction patterns concealed.

Or only share transaction data with certain approved counterparties, while keeping it hidden from the general public.

By empowering users with control and flexibility over their data exposure, we enable wider mainstream blockchain adoption by those who value their financial privacy.

At the same time, we provide tools to blacklist illicit activity, maintaining accountability and ethical standards.

Our platform, built as a protocol on top of Ethereum, enables this new paradigm of selective transparency.

Users can transact freely with the selectivity and control they desire over their data and visibility.

Additionally, our platform allows users to securely interact with decentralized applications on the Ethereum blockchain, an interoperability that provides an enhanced user experience.
