Smart contracts have revolutionized decentralized computation, but privacy remains a critical challenge. While zero-knowledge proofs enable verifiable computation without revealing inputs, and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) allows computations on encrypted data, each falls short of full programmability with privacy. This article from SwapSpace CEO Andrew Wind explores how zk and FHE can coexist to form a powerful privacy-preserving execution layer. We examine their synergy, trade-offs, an...
