Privacy Infrastructure

Definition

Privacy infrastructure refers to the underlying technologies, protocols, and architectural designs within a digital asset ecosystem that enable users to conduct transactions or interact with applications while preserving their anonymity or confidentiality. This includes cryptographic techniques like zero-knowledge proofs, secure multi-party computation, and privacy-preserving layer-2 solutions. Its purpose is to shield sensitive information from public view on transparent blockchains. Robust privacy is essential for certain use cases.
