With this protocol, Iron Fish is challenging previous patterns of full node usability. The Iron Fish networking layer supports WebRTC with WebSockets, making it trivial for all users to make a true P2P connection with no other setup requirements. First Iron Fish implementation is built such that it can be extended to run a full node directly in the browser in future iterations. Focus is to lower the barrier to entry so that any person with a computer feels comfortable enough to run a full node.

Iron Fish is a decentralized, proof-of-work (PoW) based, censorship-resistant, and publicly accessible blockchain project. It is designed to support strong privacy guarantees on every transaction. Similarly to how the invention of the SSL/TLS layer in the '90s paved the way to e-commerce and benefited countless industries, we believe that privacy is a fundamental requirement to protect the user and expand the use of cryptocurrency. Leveraging zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs) and the highest industry standards for encryption, Iron Fish gives you complete control over who sees transaction details via account view keys or transaction decryption keys. Your data. Your information. Your coins.

Iron Fish is building a universal privacy layer for crypto, enabling users to bridge assets between Iron Fish and other chains for complete private transactions—a true SSL layer for blockchains.
