Light Protocol

We’re joining @helius to build the most used privacy protocol in crypto.

Helius is the leading infrastructure company on Solana, and having worked together closely in the past 2 years, we know them to be an elite team with the distribution power to make privacy go mainstream.

To our existing users: we will keep running and maintaining the ZK Compression protocol and core SDKs.
