CanonSecret Network

Secret Network: paper, then practice.

Enigma's paper splits a computation so no single party sees the inputs. Secret sharing is not a zero-knowledge proof, and it is not an enclave.

Guy Zyskind, Oz Nathan, Alex Pentland. 2015. Status: Design paper. Last reviewed: 1 October 2026.

  1. The paper. The 2015 Enigma paper from MIT: private contracts executed over secret-shared data, so nodes compute without seeing the raw inputs. Secret Network is a later project in this lineage, using different machinery. This page is about the Enigma paper, which the historic library does not hold.

What this chain does not claim

It does not rank a network, quote a yield, or say the live client still matches the paper. The full study keeps the limits. Primary source: Enigma paper.
