Introducing Silent Data

An introduction to the Silent Data Platform

What is Silent Data?

Silent Data is a privacy-enabled Ethereum Layer 2.

How is Silent Data different from other Ethereum privacy solutions?

Many public chain privacy solutions rely on a developer using bespoke cryptographic libraries to develop their contracts. Silent Data wraps an unmodified version of Optimism meaning that developers can write privacy rules in Solidity without any custom libraries or extensions.

function balanceOf(address account) public view override returns (uint256) {
    require(account == msg.sender, "Only the account holder can query the balance");
    return super.balanceOf(account);
}

Implementation of an ERC-20 with private balances in Silent Data

This approach allows developers to deploy their existing smart contracts on the Silent Data L2 and add privacy without having to learn any new libraries.
