We’re excited to announce a partnership and integration of Secret’s Confidential Computing Layer with Metis, a permissionless Layer 2 network powering the next generation of decentralized applications! Through this partnership, Secret Network will provide Metis with confidential computing tooling, documentation, and support. This will unlock groundbreaking new features for applications in the Metis ecosystem.
Some examples of what this can enable are private voting for Metis DAOs, encrypted storage for Metis applications, secure random number generation for Metis games, confidential data access control via Metis NFTs, sealed-bid auctions for Metis NFTs and other assets, and encrypted order books for Metis DeFi applications!
By integrating Secret’s Confidential Computing Layer with Metis, we’re bringing exciting new utility and innovation to the EVM ecosystem!
We are privileged to announce the integration of @SecretNetwork's Confidential Computing Layer! 🛡️
