What problem does it solve?

Kachina and Zswap privacy protocols provide a blueprint for understanding confidential contract execution and shielded token transfers within the Midnight network. They address the need for private computation, secure off-chain state, and safe integration of on-chain actions with cryptographic proofs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Two-state model: separation of public blockchain state and private user state to preserve privacy.
  • Non-interactive proofs: use of ZK proofs to validate contract behavior without revealing secrets.
  • Contract integration patterns: how to attach private inputs to public state changes, and how audits and transcripts work.
  • Use Case: analyzing DeFi protocols requiring private balances and atomic swaps.

Quick Start

Review the Kachina and Zswap sections to identify how private inputs map to public outputs in Midnight.
