Smart contracts, created by Ethereum, enable applications to be built in a decentralized manner (dApps) on the blockchain. All information, however, is public on the main blockchain networks. This means everyone can read your code and the results of the transactions/computations. The beauty of a public chain is that you don’t have to trust any one entity. The code is used by everyone and any discretions are immediately addressed. Enigma introduces a way to extend the current abilities of public smart contracts with their off-chain private contracts. The Enigma protocol is blockchain agnostic, which is important. These off-chain computations are taken from the main public blockchain and encrypted into pieces which are then distributed among all of the nodes on the Enigma network. Enigma e
