How Paladin addresses key privacy challenges

Pain points

Global state visibility of blockchain is too broad for many enterprise use cases.

Existing solutions sacrifice programmability, limiting their ability to create custom workflows while protecting sensitive data.

Existing solutions are inefficient and struggle with scalability with large volumes of transactions

Existing solutions are often fragmented or limited in integrating with blockchain ecosystems

Existing solutions are rigid and customized to fit for particular use cases.

Existing solutions often delayed addressing privacy, leading to partial solutions
