Silent Data, a new Ethereum Layer 2 network developed by Applied Blockchain, has become the first privacy-focused chain to join superchain, the company said in a press release on Wednesday.
The London-based project is built on the upstroke and is designed to allow organizations to run blockchain applications without postponing sensitive information and combining what it calls “programmable privacy” with scalability, performance and regulatory adaptation.
The up stack is the Open Source Development stack that drives the optimism blockchain.
“The utilization of the upstroke allows us to integrate into a robust and widely adopted layer 2-ecosystem,” said Applied Blockchain founder and CEO Adi Ben-ARI in the statement.
A layer 1 network is the base layer or the underlying infrastructure in a blockchain. Layer 2 refers to a set of off-chain systems or separate blockchains built on top of layer 1S.
Superchain, an ecosystem of more than 30 layers of 2 networks, includes Coinbase’s Base, OP Mainnet, Kraken’s Ink, Sony’s Soneium, Uniswaps Unichain and World Chain.
Quiet data are the first to introduce a privacy wrap that allows you to perform sensitive workload on chain without losing transparency or composition.
The project was recently launched with a library with privacy -activated applications and is already being tested across several industries.
Businesses investigating its use include Tokeny, an Apex Group company and Archax in the real world’s tokenization; Shell in Energy Trading; and Cryopdp, a subsidiary of DHL Health Logistics, in the management of healthcare and supply chain.
Its stack can also be adopted by other superchain layers 2s or projects that want to implement their own rollups, and signal a wider feature to bring business-ready privacy into blockchain infrastructure, the company says.
