But, there’s more. Below are a few more items on the roadmap that we’re extremely excited about:
What is it?
Traditional privacy solutions slow things down – but with Real MPC Arithmetic, speed and privacy no longer need to be a trade-off. Building upon our core MPC technology, this advancement enables faster and more efficient secure computations.
Why you should be paying attention!
Think real-time encrypted DeFi, faster private swaps, and scalable enterprise blockchain solutions – all without sacrificing privacy.
What is it?
What if AI could analyze your sensitive data – without ever exposing it? This component of the roadmap will integrate privacy-enhancing mechanisms into AI, allowing for applications that conduct data analysis and machine learning without compromising data confidentiality.
Why you should be paying attention!
Get ready for AI with trustless privacy – keeping data confidential while still allowing AI-powered automation.
What is it?
Imagine a world where you control your identity – without centralized databases tracking your data. DID empowers users with self-sovereign identity solutions and secure key management, enhancing privacy, security and usability.
Why you should be paying attention!
Privacy-preserving, flexible, and built for a decentralized internet. Exciting!
These upcoming features will redefine blockchain privacy, security, and AI-driven trustless automation.

Welcome to the first progress report of 2025. As we build on the success of 2024, this update provides an in-depth look at our ongoing initiatives and forward-looking projects.
We invite you to revisit last year’s achievements in our 2024 Recap and see how we’re setting the stage for a transformative year ahead.
From late December into early January, our “12 Days of Shipmas” initiative set the tempo for 2025 by showcasing a series of key ecosystem developments. Beyond the four grant announcements, the initiative highlighted several strategic updates – including the integration of wMPC and wBTC into our BYOC portfolio.
Here’s an overview:
As a special bonus announcement, we revealed our partnership with Katara, an AI-powered workflow automation platform that will enhance developer documentation and explore confidential data handling using MPC.
You can check out our 12 Days of Shipmas Recap here and the subsequent follow-up article providing greater insights into the 4 Grants here (link to tweet with an article at the end of the thread).
On January 16, we released an article on X providing further insights into our updated technical roadmap for the first half of 2025. This roadmap is packed with features, with two of the most transformative components being:
These innovations not only meet the growing demand for privacy-first solutions but also open new avenues in sectors such as finance, healthcare, and beyond.
For the full details, please review the article with the roadmap here.
At Davos 2025, our co-founder Kurt Nielsen illuminates how Real-World Assets (RWAs) are reshaping industries by highlighting three critical enablers:
As Kurt remarked in the video, “More is happening under the hood than meets the eye.”
At Partisia, we are proud to drive this change and empower industries to harness the full potential of decentralized technologies. You can watch the video of Kurt outlining these insights, shared on X, by clicking here.
In addition to Kurt’s feature, Alex was also invited to speak at a Roundtable organized by the Health Innovation Exchange (HIEX) within the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Tent.
We attended an event in Japan that was organised by one of the validators in our ecosystem. It attracted over 400 attendees, with approximately 80% being token holders. We hugely valued the opportunity to engage with so many of our contributors.
However, following the event, certain allegations came to light about the organisers and the marketing practices that may have enabled them to build such a sizable community. In response, we have removed the original tweet and will issue a statement in Japanese clarifying that there is no formal affiliation.
We acknowledge the positive aspects of the event and the lessons learned as we continue to refine our global engagements.
This month, our Twitter Spaces featured in-depth discussions on blockchain innovation, liquid staking, AI, and more, bringing insights from industry leaders and our team at Partisia Blockchain.
Here’s a look back at the conversations with links for you to listen to the recordings:
Our first community call of the month focused on roadmap updates, ongoing priorities, and what’s ahead. We were also joined by Florian Le Goff, CEO of Synaps, for a grant spotlight segment, followed by a live Q&A that included insights into our technical roadmap for H1 2025. Replay available here.
In the recent X Spaces session, Alexander Elhorst from Sceptre spoke about their upcoming liquid staking solution for the Partisia Blockchain ecosystem. Key topics included earning staking rewards while maintaining liquidity with $sMPC tokens, security measures through smart contract audits, and managing challenges such as the 7-day cooldown period within our 1 entity = 1 node policy.
