ZUG, 8 JANUARY 2024. Partisia Blockchain’s advanced multiparty computation (MPC) technology powers the world’s first zero-knowledge cross-chain decentralized exchange (zkCrossDex), developed by TeraBlock. The monumental innovation was made possible thanks to the Partisia Blockchain Foundation’s grants program. TeraBlock’s zkCrossDex, elevated by MPC, ensures transactional privacy and addresses the critical front-running issue in decentralized finance (DeFi).
This integration sets a new standard in transactional efficiency and security within the DeFi sector. TeraBlock’s zkCrossDex aims to make DeFi more accessible, secure, and efficient, contributing to a more inclusive financial ecosystem.
The MPC-powered zkCrossDex seamlessly connects disparate blockchain networks and serves as a standard-setter of interoperability, enabling fluid asset swaps and liquidity flow across diverse ecosystems. Users gain unprecedented access to a wide array of assets and markets, representing a transformative development in the DeFi landscape.
Brian Gallagher, Partisia Blockchain Co-Founder, says:
“Together with TeraBlock, we are bringing a newly developed execution platform for DeFi to real-life use. This will address a few recognized weaknesses with one of the most popular DeFi solutions – automated market makers (AMM). The Partisia Blockchain is designed for scalability, interoperability and privacy and the framework uses all of these to improve AMMs.”
Addressing the complexity hindering mass adoption in DeFi, TeraBlock’s MPC-powered zkCrossDex removes barriers with its intuitive interface, making DeFi accessible and user-friendly – in line with Partisia Blockchain’s ethos of making DeFi more financially inclusive.
Shivam Tandon, Founder and CEO at TeraBlock, says:
“Our zkCrossDex is carefully designed to aggregate liquidity across multiple chains, addressing a pivotal challenge in DeFi and made possible by Partisia Blockchain’s MPC technology. The initiative strategically moves towards a more fluid and interconnected DeFi ecosystem, aiming to revolutionize liquidity management for a seamless and efficient market experience.”
The MPC-backed zkCrossDex represents a significant step towards a secure, more inclusive and technologically advanced DeFi ecosystem. Both Partisia Blockchain and TeraBlock are committed to making DeFi accessible to all, contributing to an equitable and efficient financial ecosystem.

In 2024, our focus shifts to a broader outreach – connecting with those who are integral not just to our growth but to its very architecture, relying on our infrastructure. Watch our year-end review featuring various team members.
The introduction of the Bring Your Own Coin (BYOC) framework, allowed the community to propose and vote on diverse tokens for transaction fees, with ETH, Polygon USDC, and BNB as initial additions with more to come in 2024. Jurisdiction management 1.0 has been launched, enabling developers to stay compliant with data regulations, such as the GDPR. We have also introduced the Partisia Blockchain “Browser” for enhanced MPC20 and BYOC token management, along with more flexible staking rulesets for easier node provider staking. Additionally, our MPC technology is revolutionizing elections with the unified public and private voting system, showcased at the Paris Blockchain Week Awards through Parti.com, ensuring accurate, private, and transparent elections on the Partisia Blockchain.
In 2023, Partisia Blockchain forged groundbreaking partnerships and achieved notable milestones. The integration with MetaMask Snaps in September marked a pivotal moment, enhancing user experiences for over 100 million individuals and enabling seamless transaction signing. This milestone supports the development of innovative cross-blockchain solutions such as BYOC and MPC-as-a-service, with plans to onboard USDT and MATIC through the Hermes bridge.
In collaboration with HES-SO Valais-Wallis, Partisia is pioneering a decentralized e-ID system in Switzerland, aligning with Swiss values of privacy and addressing concerns over the e-ID Act. The launch of the first dApp, Blockchain-Ads, on the Partisia mainnet signifies a commitment to user empowerment and privacy, utilizing multiparty computation (MPC) for data monetization aligned with privacy preservation. Additionally, Partisia Blockchain introduced Parti.com, a groundbreaking platform for content creators, leveraging Web3 and cryptocurrency for monetization and eliminating third parties from the monetization process, fostering a direct peer-to-peer network for creators and consumers.
In the second half of 2023, Partisia Blockchain launched a Grants Program, distributing over 2 million $MPC tokens (valued at US$1 million) to innovative figures in the blockchain sector. Setting itself apart from other privacy blockchains, Partisia’s secure MPC technology enables regulatory compliance, auditability, and diverse use cases, addressing challenges such as MEV attacks and safeguarding DAO voting integrity. Amid unpredictable market conditions, the Partisia Blockchain ecosystem thrived, attracting over 100 new leads and onboarding more than a dozen robust projects in 2023.
