NuLink provides decentralized privacy protection technology via an API aimed at integrating privacy features into decentralized applications. Its platform is positioned to help developers, startups, small businesses and enterprises build applications while adopting security and privacy best practices. The company emphasizes privacy-preserving tooling for dApps rather than a consumer-facing product. NuLink is described as being based in Sweden. The article reports that NuLink completed a $1.6M strategic financing. The raise signals outside investor interest in its API-focused privacy offering. NuLink provides privacy-preserving technology for decentralized applications through an out-of-the-box API platform. The platform offers endpoint encryption and cryptographic access control, using Proxy Re-Encryption and Attribute-Based Encryption to grant access by policy. For data recipients, NuLink supports Zero-Knowledge Proofs for privacy-preserving data availability and can employ Fully Homomorphic Encryption for enterprise-level data computation. The company highlights use cases including encrypted NFT marketplaces, electronic health record sharing, joint medical data analysis, decentralized digital rights management, privacy-preserving social networks, and encrypted financial data prediction. Co-founder David Jiao said the roadmap is to create a smart and scalable software architecture and to evolve from privacy data sharing to privacy data computing while building industry-specific use cases. NuLink announced a $4 million raise from a syndicate of crypto investors, per the company press release.
