What is Zama?

Zama is a cryptography project building the Zama Confidential Blockchain Protocol using Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). It enables confidential smart contracts where balances and amounts stay encrypted during computation.

What problem does Zama solve?

Public blockchains expose transaction data. Zama provides programmable confidentiality for public-chain applications without moving to a separate privacy chain.

How does Zama work?

FHEVM lets developers write confidential contracts in Solidity. Host contracts manage permissions; coprocessors execute FHE computations; Gateway coordinates access control; threshold-MPC KMS handles decryption. ZAMA pays for protocol operations.
