It is often said in the industry that "the performance bottleneck of Blockchain is not Computing Power but Trust Cost." This statement sounds enigmatic, but its actual impact is very pragmatic.

Every on-chain interaction incurs two types of costs: one is gas, and the other is the cost of exposing information on a public ledger. The latter is actually more expensive, as it limits design space and reduces strategic freedom, resulting in many high-value logics not daring to go on-chain.

@zama's approach is precisely aimed at reducing the "implicit trust costs" of this kind. FHE is not just for protecting privacy; it is more like providing developers with a "secure design buffer" that allows logic, which originally could not be placed on the Blockchain, to run naturally in encrypted form.

This will bring some unexpected chain reactions.

Complex business processes can be directly moved onto the Blockchain, unlike in the past where they were forced to be split into two sets of logic on and off the chain, avoiding synchronization delays and potential attack surfaces. Fund-related strategy execution can remain confidential while allowing the results to be publicly verifiable. Risk management models can participate in execution in real-time, but won't allow attackers to reverse-engineer the rules.

The role of the blockchain has also changed; it is no longer just a "settlement layer," but rather an execution environment that can support a complete business closed loop.

#Zama provides not just a single function, but a lower-friction on-chain development paradigm that reduces design sacrifices caused by transparency, enabling developers to truly put more value logic that could not originally be put on-chain to run on-chain. The speed of industry expansion is often determined by friction.

Zama is precisely eliminating the "design friction" that is most easily overlooked.
