The "transparency" of Blockchain actually has a bug 🧩
I increasingly feel that blockchain has an inherent contradiction: It seeks "openness and transparency" while also wanting to "protect privacy." But these two things are fundamentally in conflict with each other. Now you can casually check any on-chain address. You can see its assets, transactions, and interaction objects. It can even draw a complete social relationship diagram. Is this really "decentralized freedom"? Is it still the "ultimate form of public monitoring"?
At this moment, @zama_fhe appeared: They want the on-chain data to run encrypted — Nodes can only verify the ciphertext but cannot see the content. It's like you submit your homework, but the teacher can only confirm that you got the calculations right. But I can't see what you specifically wrote.
This means: The future blockchain does not necessarily have to be "naked" in revealing everything. but can achieve "verify correctness without exposing privacy". This is true trust in the real sense. Transparency ≠ Trust, Openness ≠ Security. Perhaps the next upgrade of Web3 is not about being more transparent, but learn to be "selectively transparent". #Zama FHE #DeFi ZamaCreatorProgram
