Original: Building a Confidential Cross-Chain Identity Protocol with Oasis Sapphire, ENS & Base
Short summary
An advanced tutorial for building a confidential cross-chain identity layer using Oasis Sapphire (confidential EVM with TEE), Base (Ethereum L2), ENS, and Celer IM. Users store encrypted KYC data on Sapphire; when a DeFi protocol on Base queries the ENS resolver, a cross-chain message triggers computation inside a TEE that returns only a boolean compliance proof — no PII ever leaks. The article includes Solidity contract code, a monorepo structure, and a step-by-step architecture diagram.
- •Users store encrypted PII in Oasis Sapphire's TEE; DeFi protocols on Base receive only boolean compliance proofs via cross-chain messaging
- •Uses EIP-3668 (CCIP-Read) for off-chain data resolution and Celer IM for state synchronization between Base and Sapphire
- •Includes full Solidity contract examples for ConfidentialVault and a Hardhat/Foundry monorepo setup for multi-chain deployment
