Web3 is widely described as the next evolution of the internet, a decentralized, user-centric ecosystem where individuals control their digital assets and data.
Yet, while blockchain technology delivers transparency and asset ownership, true data control remains elusive. People may hold and control their assets on-chain, but they generally lack privacy over how their personal information is stored, shared, and monetized.
At Partisia Blockchain, we fix this. Our mission is to embed privacy and data ownership in Web3 through Multiparty Computation (MPC)—a powerful cryptographic technology that enables secure, centralized privacy-preserving computations.
This is why we say: “We do for data what Bitcoin did for money.”
Our vision is clear: build a decentralized network that is both transparent and confidential, enabling users and organizations to interact freely without losing control of their data.
Achieving this requires removing friction, enabling seamless interoperability, and delivering a practical path for both native web3 projects and traditional enterprises to build on or with Partisia Blockchain.
To bring this vision to life, our strategic priorities focus on two key areas:
Despite remarkable strides in the blockchain industry, widespread adoption is still hindered by fragmentation, inefficiencies, and insufficient confidentiality.
Partisia Blockchain tackles these challenges in several ways:
User-centric confidentiality and data control:
Cross-chain interoperability:
Scalability and stable fees:
Which enables many new and novel use cases such as:
Bringing Privacy to DID and AI:
Providing Cross-Chain MPC Security:
Enhancing Cross-Chain DeFi:
Although Partisia Blockchain is a best practice L1 it does not compete with other L1 or L2 projects; instead, we complement them. We do so by providing privacy, security, and cross-chain functionality that makes web3 more scalable, user-friendly and secure.
For enterprises, the leap into decentralized technology can be often seen as too daunting, complex and disruptive. Many factors may contribute to this, including concerns around security, scalability, privacy, control, and regulatory compliance.
Partisia Blockchain simplifies this process by providing a step-by-step migration path that allows businesses to transition from private networks to public blockchain ecosystems at their own pace.
There is a natural supply chain perspective in moving web2 companies to web3. While industry collaboration typically happens in private enterprise controlled networks, web3 offers a superior way to enhance the collaboration with end users of a product or service.
Two core properties of Partisia Blockchain makes it a pathway to web3:
Examples of enterprise adoption use cases include:
By minimizing adoption hurdles, we empower enterprises to capitalize on blockchain core benefits – transparency, interoperability, and privacy – without disrupting their existing operations.
This strategy is already reflected in our six-month technical roadmap for Partisia Blockchain, merging technical advancements with ecosystem expansion plans.

Utilizing GODS.Network
A more detailed roadmap update will be shared in June, outlining the next evolution of the project.
One of the most significant innovations in the ecosystem is the launch of GODS Network, a revolutionary interoperability layer built on Partisia Blockchain.
Leveraging MPC and secure cryptographic techniques, GODS Network enables any smart contract to seamlessly access and process data across multiple blockchains—turning fragmented ecosystems into a unified digital infrastructure.
In essence, GODS Network addresses one of web3’s biggest barriers—true interoperability—while amplifying Partisia Blockchain’s vision of a privacy-focused, scalable, and decentralized future.
It is worth noting that GODS Network is funded independently from the Partisia Blockchain Foundation, hence, the Partisia Blockchain benefits from additional throughput and activity without extra cost to the ecosystem.

A public blockchain’s long-term success is measured by real-usage, not short-term speculation. Our strategy is designed to drive 3 core pillars:
While we offer grants to builders, we do not rely on them to attract enterprises. They join us for ROI and a robust technical foundation with proven technical expertise to take on this challenge.
Our sustainability model focuses on consistent ecosystem involvement – real transactions, ongoing integrations, and enduring partnerships, rather than token-driven boom and busts.
Decentralized governance is key to fulfilling our long-term vision. The Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF) is a Swiss-regulated non-profit, operating under strict oversight to ensure funds are used solely to develop and promote the public blockchain.
Over time, as we evolve, we will implement governance improvements to further align with community participation and transparency. Discussions and updates around governance changes will be conducted through blog posts, social channels, community channels and other avenues we’re working on.
You can join us across any of these channels, available via our linktree.
Our goal is not just decentralization for the sake of optics, but real, functional governance that supports the long-term success of the network.
Governance improvements will be introduced gradually, ensuring that shifts toward decentralization are well-planned and beneficial to the network.
Partisia Blockchain is a key enabler of a truly decentralized web3. By combining MPC-powered privacy, interoperability, and real enterprise adoption, we are setting the stage for a more secure, scalable, and inclusive digital economy.
We are at a pivotal moment in our journey. With a refined strategy, an expanding ecosystem, and clear governance direction, we are ready to take web3 to the next level.
Expect to see major developments in the coming months, including new technical rollouts, ecosystem partnerships, and deeper community engagement.

The need for a decentralized exchange (DEX) with a sealed bidding inspired the first practical application of the multiparty computation (MPC) technology, which was theorized some 20 years earlier. Partisia addressed the urgent need to reallocate production rights among sugar beet producers in Denmark in 2008. Fifteen years ago, Danisco, the sole Danish sugar producer, recognized the value of the MPC-based DEX solution and created a stepping stone leading to the creation of Partisia. Over the years, Partisia and, later, Partisia Blockchain expanded their offerings based on the MPC technology, developing secure auctions for the telecom and energy sectors, key management for general use and data analytics that forms a new beginning for the data economy.

At present, it requires a fair amount of technology knowledge to build and support a node in PBC. While many who do not have a technology background have been able to build and maintain nodes, it still creates a barrier that many individuals or organizations feel hesitant to cross. The other challenge is the current staking and job association process. Because the staked MPC tokens in a node are being used as collateral for all the types of jobs the node is running, unstaking and unassociating tokens that are being used can be a challenge.
This is why we are putting focus on implementing a simpler node setup and operations process. This will allow easier setup of nodes as well as easier associating and dissociating of your tokens.
These new features will be rolled out in phases, with the first one being automatic node registration. A simplified registration process will be rolled out where just the configs on your node will kickstart the KYC/KYB and the registration process.
Second phase of the project will be to simplify the association and dissociation of your staked tokens. It will all be a part of our “Staking 2.0” model, which will look to make it easier and less restrictive for both node operators and delegated stakers to manage their stakes.
Running a node will still require some level of technical skill. We hope by automating some of the process, it will make it less confusing and easier for the registration process.
