KRNL Labs x Oasis Protocol

Securing Node Execution with Token Authorities on a Private Network

This collaboration marks a notable step forward in enhancing the security, privacy, and efficiency of decentralized applications (dApps). By integrating KRNL’s modular execution infrastructure with Oasis Protocol’s confidential ParaTime, Sapphire, developers can secure their kernel-enabled dApps through the validation of a private Token Authority (TA).

Redefining Privacy and Security in Web3

Oasis Protocol natively supports privacy as a feature, offering developers tools like confidential state, end-to-end encryption, and confidential randomness through its Sapphire ParaTime. Our partnership leverages these advanced privacy features to ensure that Token Authorities (smart contracts that independently verify KRNL node execution) are deployed on a private network, safeguarding them from tampering or spoofing.

What is a Token Authority?

At its core, a Token Authority (TA) is a smart contract that acts as a guardian for your dApp by independently verifying the KRNL node’s execution. It protects your contract from attacks, alterations, and tampering, by verifying that each transaction is safe and authentic. The TA’s logic must reside on a private network to prevent malicious actors from intercepting or manipulating its verification process.

Through this collaboration:

  • Token Authorities will be deployed on Oasis Sapphire’s private network, ensuring that node execution is validated in a secure and optimized environment.

  • Developers can leverage confidential smart contracts to enhance the privacy and security of their applications.

  • The integration enables seamless access to Oasis’s EVM-compatible Sapphire ParaTime, allowing developers to build with familiar tools and benefit from cutting-edge privacy features.

Empowering Developers with Confidential Execution

With this partnership, developers can now utilize Oasis Sapphire’s confidential capabilities alongside KRNL’s modular execution infrastructure. The synergy ensures that applications are both high performance and built with privacy at their core. It also demonstrates KRNL Labs’ continued dedication to improving scalability, security, and composability across Web3 ecosystems.

Key benefits for developers include:

  • Private Logic: With the TA residing on Oasis Sapphire, the node is secured, preventing any middlemen from spoofing or faking a kernel’s response.

  • Privacy-Preserving Smart Contracts: Build dApps with end-to-end encryption and confidential state management.

  • EVM Compatibility: Develop with ease using Sapphire’s Ethereum-compatible environment while maintaining confidentiality.

What This Means for Web3 Builders 

For builders, this partnership represents a powerful expansion of available tools and resources. With KRNL and Oasis Protocol, developers can now:

  • Seamlessly integrate confidential execution into their dApps.

  • Leverage Token Authorities (TA) to ensure secure and validated kernel transactions.

  • Build scalable, privacy-first dApps that meet the demands of modern Web3 use cases.

About KRNL Labs

KRNL Labs is pioneering a cross-chain composability protocol built around "kernels"—modular, reusable building blocks of on-chain and off-chain functions designed to enhance decentralized applications (dApps). Each kernel serves as a specialised toolkit that dApps can leverage to streamline development, improve UX, and drive adoption. By enabling seamless execution across optimised blockchain networks and Web2 services, the KRNL Protocol accelerates scalability, boosts security, and enhances cost efficiency, fostering a truly interoperable multi-chain ecosystem.
