Tempo has launched a privacy solution, Zones, to support permissioned parallel blockchain operation.

BlockBeats News, April 17th, Tempo, a Layer 1 blockchain developed jointly by Stripe and Paradigm, has launched a privacy feature called Zones. This is a solution for a permissioned parallel blockchain designed for enterprise use cases requiring higher confidentiality, such as payroll, fund management, and payment settlement.

Reports indicate that Zones, as a parallel blockchain connected to the Tempo mainnet, provide a private execution environment where internal transactions remain confidential. However, assets and funds are fully interoperable with Tempo L1, other Zones, deposit channels, and liquidity pools. Each Zone is managed by trusted entities such as financial institutions or infrastructure providers. Operators can view all activities within their environment, implement access controls, but do not control the underlying assets.
