I think people sometimes confuse transparency with making everything visible.
They aren't the same thing.
A financial institution may want transactions to settle on public infrastructure while keeping its positions, balances and strategies confidential.
That's a much harder problem.
@primus_labs is approaching it from two sides:
✅️ zkTLS for proving that off-chain information is authentic.
✅️ FHE for computing on sensitive information while keeping it encrypted.
That combination is interesting because it doesn't require choosing between:
“trust the data”
or
“protect the data.”
The goal becomes:
verify it, use it, and reveal as little as necessary.
That feels much closer to what institutional on-chain finance actually needs.

Say you have $100K on-chain.
You want to transfer it, earn yield, or use it in a financial strategy.
Why should everyone watching the blockchain know exactly how much you moved?
That’s the problem @primus_labs is approaching with FHE.
Instead of decrypting sensitive values every time the system needs to work with them, computation can happen while the data remains encrypted.
So the asset can remain useful without making every underlying amount public.
And this is where I think privacy infrastructure gets more interesting:
privacy shouldn't mean taking your assets out of the financial system.
It should mean having more control over what the system can see.
That feels much closer to what institutional on-chain finance actually needs.
That's a really smart take. It's like saying you can see the ingredients list without giving away the secret family recipe. Love this approach.
