Zama is a confidential blockchain protocol project that uses Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) technology to implement confidential smart contracts on any L1 or L2 blockchain. The protocol maintains on-chain data in an encrypted state throughout processing using FHE technology and leverages co-processors to offload FHE computations from the base chain, keeping gas fees low while achieving horizontal scalability and publicly verifiable privacy. Zama introduces various new use cases for DeFi, including confidential token swaps, lending, yield farming, confidential stablecoin trading, self-custody banking services, token issuance and governance, RWA tokenization, and sealed auctions to prevent front-running. Developers can build Zama contracts using traditional Solidity toolchains, marking private parts of contracts with the euint data type, and directly defining programmable compliance rules within smart contracts. The protocol is currently live on the mainnet.
