Celestia’s modular design offers a high-throughput network that makes transaction data accessible for download by anyone. This feature allows Fhenix to support scalable, privacy-focused applications with enhanced efficiency. By providing reliable data streams, Celestia ensures that Fhenix developers can build applications that use a diverse range of on- and off-chain data sources while maintaining top-notch privacy standards.

Guy Itzhaki, CEO and Co-Founder of Fhenix, stated:
“Our vision at Fhenix is to make FHE technology widely accessible, and integrating Celestia’s data availability solution is a critical step in achieving this. Their network not only reduces the cost of FHE computation but also enhances our platform’s scalability and flexibility, empowering developers to create advanced privacy-focused applications.”

Celestia’s modular, lightweight architecture complements Fhenix’s EVM-compatible network, designed for efficient confidential computation. This integration facilitates the rapid processing of encrypted on-chain data at a lower cost, enabling the development of dynamic dapps that offer comprehensive end-to-end encryption.

Developers on Fhenix can now utilize the fhEVM to create decentralized applications in Solidity, benefiting from fully encrypted smart contracts. This integration supports a wide array of use cases, from decentralized finance (DeFi) and gaming to confidential voting. The Celestia partnership accelerates the development of innovative applications on Fhenix, allowing projects to concentrate on their core functionalities while Celestia handles data availability.
