The Secret Network Foundation (SNF) and Synk have announced a partnership as part of Secret’s exclusive Builders’ Program, a comprehensive initiative supporting innovators in integrating confidential computing into decentralized applications (dApps). This partnership marks a significant step in advancing privacy-preserving technologies in the blockchain ecosystem.

Through the Builders’ Program, Synk will join a select group of projects receiving targeted support to accelerate the development of their privacy-centric solutions. Synk will leverage Secret Network’s advanced capabilities in confidential computing and work closely with SNF to integrate privacy by design into its innovative tools. Synk’s services include private browsers, encrypted data storage, and VPN integrations, enhancing security and usability for developers and end-users alike.

“Synk’s mission aligns perfectly with our focus on empowering developers with privacy tools that are practical and scalable,” says Lisa Loud, executive director of the Secret Network Foundation. “Privacy isn’t just a feature; it’s a necessity. Our collaboration with Synk is a testament to our shared belief that confidentiality is foundational for the future of Web3. By joining forces, we’re creating a privacy-first ecosystem that benefits users, developers, and businesses alike.”

Synk aims to establish itself as the default private browser for projects across Web3, including members of the DeCC Alliance, an initiative fostering decentralized confidential computing. The company’s vision extends to creating an app store for privacy-focused dApps, enabling seamless integration of secure and scalable solutions.

“Synk provides essential tools for privacy and security in a landscape increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats,” says Chenz, the Head of Marketing at Synk. “By partnering with Secret Network, we’re taking a bold step toward building an ecosystem where developers and users can trust that their data is protected. This collaboration will allow us to scale our impact and become the backbone of private browsing for the decentralized world.”
