Building a powerful creditability framework on the Oasis Network.

We are delighted to announce our partnership with the Oasis Protocol Foundation to provide new opt-in compliance primitives for applications built on the Oasis Network, a privacy-enabled scalable blockchain network for Decentralized Finance and a Responsible Data Economy. With this integration, the Oasis Network will be able to offer a more robust, interoperable and flexible compliant transaction framework.

The Oasis Network’s combination of confidential computing and blockchain enables a new paradigm called Tokenized Data. Blockchain allows for logging and enforcement of usage policies with high integrity and auditability. Confidential computing ensures that data remains private during computation and cannot be reused without permission. This capsule of data + policies creates a new kind of digital asset that can be consumed along specific guidelines for a specific fee or exchange of value.

Through our partnership, Dapps built on the Oasis Network will be able to integrate authentic digital reputation, identity, and creditability frameworks. This is a significant step forward towards enabling a user-controlled and privacy-preserving decentralized identity: users will benefit from the opt-in regulatory compliant feature that connects private and public databases, and permissioned and permissionless blockchains.

“Oasis strongly believes that privacy-preserving computation and identity will expand DeFi to a market worth $6T. We are excited to partner with Shyft to add this critical piece to the rich ecosystem of protocols integrated on the Oasis Network.” — Luca Cosentino, Oasis Product Lead

By integrating with Shyft Network, decentralized applications using Oasis Network can create whitelisted addresses, i.e., a whitelist of items/IP addresses that are granted access to a certain system or protocol, and Anti-Money-Laundering (AML) and GDPR compliant systems, that help comply with AML regulation while protecting user’s personal-identifiable information.

“This is an incredibly powerful partnership in terms of our goals of creating the future of compliant infrastructure and cross-protocol data discovery systems” — Suzanne Ennis SVP of Shyft Network

We expect that this integration will be fully ready by early 2021.
