Building a decentralized network for secure data exchange
Centrifuge aims to create a peer-to-peer network and protocol for secure and private data exchange. They are focused on building the infrastructure for data to exist and be exchanged securely. Their goal is to allow businesses to have complete control over their data and choose how much information they want to share. They use a combination of off-chain messaging and on-chain anchoring to ensure data integrity. By tokenizing payment obligations from invoices, they provide verifiable proof without revealing sensitive information. Centrifuge is exploring the use of zero-knowledge proofs to further enhance privacy and enable more complex computations while protecting data.
