Mantle
Identity and privacy toolkit
A key element of public distributed ledger technologies is that anyone hosting a node on the network can view all confirmed transactions on that network. This level of transparency naturally creates a barrier to entry for enterprises and startups who wish to deploy blockchain applications but require an element of privacy in order to maintain their competitive advantage.
What Mantle delivers
Mantle solves the problem of privacy and anonymity by adding an additional layer of security on top of any blockchain application that supports smart contracts.
This enables confidential data to be encrypted within smart contracts and kept anonymous, whilst other data can be shared on the ledger for users to see.
Mantle enables data caching to greatly improve system performance and data retrieval to run application operations.
