Ika arrives on Solana with dWallets, a tool that allows controlling assets from any blockchain without bridges or trusted intermediaries.
Encrypt introduces FHE on Solana, enabling the development of confidential financial applications where data remains encrypted during execution.
Both projects will be on devnet in Q2 2026 and on mainnet before year-end, aiming to position Solana as infrastructure for institutional onchain markets.
Ikaarrives on Solana with a proposal to eliminate bridges as the mechanism for moving assets between blockchains. The core technology is dWallets, programmable multi-chain accounts that allow Solana users to control assets on any network without trusted intermediaries. The underlying mechanism is 2PC-MPC, a distributed signing scheme between the user and Ika’s decentralized network that removes dependence on centralized custodians or synthetic wrappers.
The problem that Ika aims to solve is structural. Today, assets non-native to Solana — such as Bitcoin, RWAs, or stablecoins issued on other networks — reach the ecosystem through bridges that fragment liquidity and create third-party dependencies. With dWallets, those assets can be held, traded, and used financially on Solana directly. A DEX on Solana could operate with native assets from any chain, a lending protocol could accept collateral from any network, and a multisig could custody assets from multiple blockchains through a single interface.
dWallets will also be significant for artificial intelligence agents. Instead of granting an agent a direct private key, a program on Solana can define and enforce policies over how that agent operates assets across different chains. Since signing is coordinated through Ika’s 2PC-MPC design, the agent never controls a private key autonomously and every action remains subject to decentralized policies.
On the other hand, Encrypt introduced a complementary primitive: Fully Homomorphic Encryption. FHE allows performing computations directly on encrypted data without needing to decrypt it, enabling the creation of financial applications where balances, positions, and orders remain confidential during onchain execution. Its use cases include hidden-intent trading, sealed auctions, private prediction markets, and lending systems with confidential positions.
Both projects share a common objective: removing the complexities that currently limit institutional participation in public blockchains. Ika eliminates liquidity fragmentation between chains. Encrypt eliminates public exposure of sensitive financial data. Both will be available on devnet during Q2 2026 and on mainnet before year-end.
