ARPA Chain is a privacy-preserving blockchain computation network. Through Multi-party Computation (MPC), ARPA enables the sharing of private data through private smart contracts. One of the main goals of the network is to separate data ownership from utility so that multiple entities can analyse data without exposing the private data of any involved party.
ARPA is the utility token used to compensate network operators, pay for data usage, and vote on governance matters. ARPA Chain claims many use cases from insurance to healthcare or advertising. For example, advertisers could display targeted ads based on consumer behaviour without accessing any private information about the consumer.
