Layer 3 Architecture

Built on Ethereum, Cypher’s Layer 3 architecture is designed to deliver scalability and efficiency without sacrificing privacy. Key innovations include:

Scalable Framework

  • Enhances scalability by bundling multiple transactions into rollups, reducing gas costs and latency.

  • Ensures full EVM compatibility, allowing existing Solidity contracts to execute encrypted smart contracts seamlessly.

  • Supports WASM-based computational extensions for executing FHE workloads alongside standard EVM operations.

  • Allows the deployment of custom Layer 3 environments tailored to FHE computations.

  • Enables independent chain operations with tailored consensus and protocol logic, supporting specialized use cases.

Encrypted Rollup Technology

  • Encodes state transitions and computation outputs into compact encrypted proofs.

  • Ensures efficient on-chain verification while maintaining data confidentiality.

Anytrust Technology

  • Optimizes data availability through a committee-based model, reducing reliance on Ethereum Layer 1 bandwidth.

  • Guarantees secure off-chain storage and rapid retrieval for large encrypted datasets.

Hierarchical State Compression

  • Reduces storage overhead by compressing encrypted state updates into Merkle proofs, improving scalability.
