Shutter Network

We’ve Seen This Before. It’s Happening Again. In 2014, Michael Lewis published a book called Flash Boys. It pulled back the curtain on Wall Street’s dirty little secret: a small group of trading firms had rigged the game. They spent millions on faster cables and servers so

We're excited to share some big news: Erigon’s 3.1.0 Pebble Paw release now officially supports Shutter’s encrypted mempool on the Gnosis chain in addition to the Nethermind client. Erigon is a high-performance Ethereum execution client, and this update makes it easier than ever for

This article provides insights on proposing encrypted mempools in various environments, offering a practical framework tailored to your context.

Ethereum’s public mempool has always been a double-edged sword.  On one hand, it reflects the openness of the network and allows for auditability. On the other, that same openness creates an “exploit window,” where pending transactions can be seen and acted upon before they’re finalized. This fuels harmful

What if your AI could launch time-locked encrypted workflows with just a few prompts? That’s now possible with today’s release of the testnet alpha of Shutter MCP, powered by Shutter API. With Shutter MCP, your AI can set up and run: * Confidential request for proposals * Sealed bug bounties

Encrypted mempools dramatically reduce censorship and malicious MEV, but face limitations such as potential collusion, rigid setups, and added latency. In this article, we’ll explore advanced, deployable cryptographic primitives - beyond FHE and MPC - that can address these limitations.

Myths and misconceptions about encrypted mempools can hinder adoption and obscure the value that they offer to Ethereum and its users.

Ethereum's $1 trillion security initiative aims to attract institutional capital, but the chain’s transparent mempool enables $1.8 billion in malicious MEV extraction.

Glamsterdam is Ethereum’s next big upgrade - and a chance to dramatically improve decentralization and censorship resistance. Shutter supports prioritizing EIP-7732 (ePBS) and EIP-7805 (FOCIL), with encrypted mempools and silent threshold encryption proposed as powerful future implementations.
