TEN Protocol redefines Ethereum’s privacy with ‘compute in confidence’ approach
Ethereum’s transparency has long been one of its greatest strengths—but for many real-world applications, it has also become a structural limitation. From MEV-driven trading inefficiencies to data leakage in DeFi, gaming, and AI-driven workflows, the assumption that everything must be public in order to be verifiable is increasingly being challenged. TEN Protocol is built around a different premise: that computation can remain provably correct without forcing users, developers, and businesses to expose sensitive inputs, strategies, or logic to the entire market.
In this CryptoSlate Q&A, the team behind TEN Protocol explains its concept of “compute in confidence” and why they believe privacy-first execution is a missing primitive in Ethereum’s scaling roadmap. Rather than launching a separate privacy ecosystem, TEN is designed as a full EVM environment anchored to Ethereum settlement and liquidity, allowing developers to selectively choose what should remain public and what should execute confidentially.
The discussion explores how this hybrid model reshapes user experience, mitigates MEV, enables sealed-bid markets and hidden order flow, and unlocks new categories of applications—from verifiable AI agents to provably fair iGaming. It also addresses the security and governance trade-offs of using Trusted Execution Environments, and how TEN’s architecture is designed to make failures detectable, contained, and recoverable rather than silently catastrophic.
Together, the Q&A offers a detailed look at how selective confidentiality could redefine trust, composability, and usability across the Ethereum ecosystem.
