Gaming
Computational privacy enables developers to bring more game mechanics on-chain, such as player positions and hidden maps to unlock “fog of war” type games and prevent players from front-running.
Private DeFi
Programmable privacy enables developers to pick and choose the parts of a DeFi Dapp to make private. It might make sense to keep liquidation levels private on lending protocols to prevent "liquidation hunting"
dark pool trading
A dark pool is a privately organized exchange for trading
securities where exposure can be hidden until after execution and reporting. This allows
investors to trade without publicly revealing their intentions during the search for a
buyer or seller.
Sealed auctions
In a sealed bid auction, bidders privately submit their one
best offer in a sealed envelope. The bids are opened privately by the auctioneer and
seller.
Private agreements
Agreements, such as a Service Level Agreement (SLA) between a
supplier and buyer, are incredibly sensitive. They reveal commercial relationships and
impact reputation where an SLA has failed. Agreements deployed to Obscuro can be
entirely private, such that aside from the participants, nobody even knows the contract
exists.
Identity
Solving KYC on blockchain is one of the biggest challenges.
Obscuro allows you to build KYC solutions with complete privacy enabling users to only
reveal the bits they choose to disclose on demand.
