A new form of secure computing known as “Secure Multiparty Computation” (MPC) has been discovered by Dawn Song. Using MPC, several parties can do computations on a common collection of data without disclosing any personal information to one another.

The most recent study by her team uses MPC in conjunction with modern cryptographic methods to allow machine learning on Oasis Network while maintaining anonymity. As a result, businesses may now train machine learning models on sensitive data without ever having to share the information with third parties—not even the other compute partners. The network can guarantee that user data stays private and safe while yet enabling complex computing and machine learning via MPC and smart cryptography.

The Song’s Oasis Ecosystem Fund, which is presently valued at $200 million after rising from $160 million in 2021, has received the support of Binance Labs, the venture capital division of the Binance cryptocurrency exchange. The fund continues to draw interest from VC firms and DeFi builders alike and works on a number of initiatives in Web3, DeFi, and cross-chain capabilities. Binance Labs joins other venture capital firms, including Jump Capital, Draper Dragon, Dragonfly Capital, and Hashed, that are supporting the Oasis Ecosystem Fund.

YuzuSwap, the first DEX on Oasis Network, reached $100 million TVL in just its first day of operation and saw $323 million in trade volume. Emerald, the Oasis Network’s smart contract platform, served as the foundation for YuzuSwap.

The most recent guests on Song’s “Fireside Chats” broadcasts from 2022 included DeFi celebrities Christopher Giancarlo, Kevin Chou, and Jeremy Allaire. Song is anticipated to promote the Oasis environment to a wider audience while continuing to be active on Twitter and in public speaking.
