About Nucypher

NuCypher (NU) is a cryptographic infrastructure protocol built on Ethereum that provides privacy and access control services for decentralized applications. It uses proxy re-encryption technology to allow nodes to transform encrypted data from one public key to another without ever accessing the underlying plaintext. This enables developers to securely share sensitive data across distributed systems without relying on centralized intermediaries. NuCypher operates through a network of staked nodes that perform cryptographic operations in exchange for NU token rewards, making it a practical privacy layer for blockchain-based applications requiring granular data access management.
