What is Iron Fish?
Iron Fish is a proof-of-work layer-1 blockchain that encrypts every transaction using zero-knowledge proofs by default. Asset amounts, senders, and receivers are hidden from public view, while view keys let users selectively disclose transactions for audits or compliance. The chain supports bridged assets from EVM networks, giving them a shielded execution environment alongside the native IRON asset.
