Description

TACo (Threshold Access Control) is a general-purpose, end-to-end encrypted access control plugin that enables secure data sharing without trusting a centralized intermediary. It is designed for Web3 applications such as decentralized social networks, GenAI, and storage, as well as high-stakes Web2 use cases like healthcare and journalism. TACo is a product of Threshold Network, which provides a suite of cryptographic primitives for public blockchains. Threshold Network, a merger of the Keep Network and NuCypher, also offers tBTC, a decentralized Bitcoin-to-Ethereum bridge, aiming to integrate BTC into the DeFi ecosystem across various chains. The network is cryptoeconomically secure, redundant, and battle-tested, offering a transparent trust model for developers and users.
