#pha 🔐 The magic piece: TEE (Trusted Execution Environment)
This is the crown jewel.
A TEE is like a sealed vault inside a computer chip:
• Even the machine owner can’t peek inside 👀❌
• Code runs in isolation
• Data stays encrypted while being processed
Phala uses Intel SGX to create these “mini black boxes.”
👉 Why this matters:
• Smart contracts on most chains are fully public
• Phala lets you run private logic (e.g. AI models, APIs, trading strategies)
