Zama is a crypto privacy protocol that adds a layer of confidentiality to public blockchains. Homomorphic encryption (FHE) is a technology that enables processing data without decrypting it. This can be used to create private smart contracts on top of public, permissionless blockchains, where only specific users would be able to see the transaction data and contract states.

FLock.io aims to build a decentralized, privacy-preserving solution for Artificial Intelligence. It has proposed a research initiative called Federated Learning Blocks (FLocks for short), which uses blockchain as a coordination platform among data holders to conduct Machine Learning while keeping data local and private. By replacing the central entity that collects data and organizes machine learning with blockchain, FLocks aims to empower users to mine insights from their own data and monetize at their own discretion.

Canton Network is a public blockchain with institutional-grade privacy that features a highly configurable privacy-preserving mechanism at its core. Its on-chain tokenized assets are massive, and its proven institutional-grade scale synchronizes previously siloed systems with the configurable privacy and control needed to unlock asset liquidity in the tradfi and crypto ecosystems. Governed by the Canton Foundation and with the participation of global financial institutions, Canton enables real-time, secure synchronization and settlement across multiple asset classes on a shared, interoperable infrastructure. Originally developed by Digital Asset, the network is now open-source, powered by its native token, Canton Coin, and supports decentralized governance and collaborative application development.

Nym is a privacy platform that provides strong network-level privacy against sophisticated end-to-end attackers, and anonymous access control using blinded, re-randomizable, decentralized credentials. It protects privacy at the network layer by encrypting and relaying users' internet traffic through a multi-layered network called a mixnet. In each layer of the mixnet, mix nodes mix users' internet traffic with that of other users, making communications private and hiding metadata such as IP address, who they are talking to, when and where, and more.
