Company Description

The Iron Fish Foundation acts as a steward of the Iron Fish project, supporting the development and adoption of decentralized, open source, compliant data privacy technology. The Foundation partners with community members and organizations to accelerate the growth of the Iron Fish ecosystem through a combination of developer grants, events, partnerships, education, and resources. Iron Fish is a brand new Layer-1, Proof of Work chain where every transaction is encrypted, protecting sensitive user information with zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) for validation. Our goal is for Iron Fish to be the privacy layer for all crypto, letting assets from other chains be transferred over to Iron Fish to gain the benefit of privacy.
