Spotlight
The team at @silentdao_ is diligently working on some extremely important privacy tech, building what is essentially meant to be a middleware privacy/encryption layer designed to facilitate composable privacy solutions within the EVM itself... so that you can utilize all the same mechanisms and protocols on-chain you normally would, but with built-in privacy protection while you do so!
Our editor @rektdiomedes has been helping raise awareness about what the @silentdao_ team have been building, and their launch is coming soon, and follow them on Twitter for more updates!
And make sure to check out their latest article below!
