Why Zama’s FHE Is the Missing Piece for Privacy in Web3
In the age of blockchain, privacy is no longer optional — it’s critical. Yet most so-called “privacy solutions” in Web3 are stuck in a paradox: you can either encrypt your data or compute on it — but not both. That’s where Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), and more specifically Zama’s fhEVM, comes in. This isn’t just theoretical. Zama is building real-world infrastructure to bring true privacy-preserving computation to smart contracts. Here’s what that means — and why it matters.The Problem...
