In what is possibly the most impactful Web3 partnership in recent times, we are excited to announce our partnership with Zama to integrate Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) into our Web3 Identity Stack.

Our goals are to:

• Integrate FHE to the Galactica Cypher State using Zama's leading technology.

  • Research

  • Development

  • Investment

• Create sovereign data markets in which you retain ownership of your information and your right to privacy.

• Implement an identity stack capable of protocol-level private reputation.
  

Congratulations to all those who guessed our new partner correctly in the comments of our previous teaser on X.

Zama x Galactica Partnership details

This partnership focuses on ensuring a user-friendly experience while safeguarding against tracking and data leaks. By integrating Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) via fhEVM and Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), we are pioneering methods to process encrypted data confidentially on-chain. This innovative approach alleviates the computational burden on users by delegating it to professional validators, thereby ensuring robust data privacy and enhancing overall efficiency.

• Empowering Secure and Private Data Computation

FHE allows secure computations on encrypted data, ensuring sensitive information remains protected at all times. Combined with zk-SNARKs and zkKYC, it enables selective data sharing while maintaining privacy and compliance. Additionally, GuardianNodes facilitate the verification and integration of data across on-chain, cross-chain, and off-chain environments.

• Creating Persistent Private Identities and Augmented Reputations

By leveraging our technologies, Galactica.com can enable users to create persistent private identities and build augmented reputations. This new paradigm allows dApps to adapt to each user's reputation based on shared data, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of peer-to-peer marketing and data markets.

• Unlocking New Use Cases

The integration of FHE and other privacy-preserving technologies opens up a multitude of innovative use cases, including:

• Data Training for Large Language Models (LLM)

• Reputation Augmented DeFi & SocialFi (RADeFi)

• SoulDrops (Reputation Augmented Airdrops)

• Dynamic Launchpads

• New Credit Derivatives

• The merger of TradiFi assets into DeFi|

And more.
