We are happy to announce our partnership with Raze Network to help support next-generation privacy by integrating Raze’s native privacy layer to provide end-to-end anonymity functions into the Genesis Ecosystem!!

Raze Network is a Substrate-based, cross-chain privacy protocol for the Polkadot ecosystem, built as a native privacy layer that can provide anonymity for DeFi. Users can use RAZE to empower the privacy of on-chain transactions between the recipient and destination addresses and transfer any token between any blockchain.

Users can hide their trading history as RAZE is compatible across all DeFi products. It can be fully compatible with Uniswap, AAVE, Compound and DeFi ecosystem on Polkadot and Cosmos. Users can mine RAZE in a truly private way — the access to the liquidity pool always stays anonymous and secure.

This partnership will pave the way for cross-chain transactions occurring within GenShards to be protected by privacy and have access to the major utility of Raze’s minting, redeeming, and transferring functions. Builders can implement the privacy-preserving functions with an open protocol giving access to all decentralized applications.The RAZE protocol gives the power to connect to any unconnected DeFi or Web3.0 product and expand the capability of existing decentralized applications with RazeVM. The collaboration will accelerate the pace of secure privacy adoption and create an overall safer environment for its users and community.

Projects within the Raze ecosystem will have access to pre-IDO liquidity on the Genesis Shards platform. Additionally, those projects will be able to collaborate with other projects relevant to them in the Genesis Shards ecosystem, and also derive benefits out of the high-quality Genesis Partner Network consisting of access, ecosystem, and mentor partners.

Genesis Shards is humbled by the trust placed in it by more than 50 high-quality access, ecosystem & network partners. Stay tuned as we have some more exciting news coming up on this front in the coming days!

“The partnership with Raze is a no-brainer. Their substrate-based, cross-chain privacy protocol will provide end-to-end anonymity to transactions within GS ecosystem. The interoperability provided by their protocol naturally aligns with Genesis Shards’s purpose to provide promising projects with cross-chain pre-IDO liquidity !”

— Nilotpal Mukherjee, Genesis Shards Co-founder

“Raze is delighted to collaborate with Genesis Shards to provide a safe environment to their community! The partnership will enable cross-chain privacy-preserving payment and trading systems on Genesis Shards, while protecting the transparency of their assets and behaviors from surveillance.

— Justin Kellison, Raze
