EditPenumbra operates in the blockchain and cryptocurrency market, focusing on providing privacy solutions for the Cosmos ecosystem. The company serves clients who require enhanced privacy features for their blockchain transactions, including individual users, developers, and enterprises. Penumbra's business model revolves around integrating privacy with proof of stake through a unique private delegation mechanism. This mechanism offers staking derivatives, tax-efficient staking, and on-chain governance with private voting. Penumbra connects to the Cosmos ecosystem via the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol, acting as an ecosystem-wide shielded pool. This allows for private transactions in any IBC-compatible asset. Additionally, Penumbra offers ZSwap, a private decentralized exchange that supports sealed bid batch auctions and Uniswap v3-style concentrated liquidity. The company generates revenue through transaction fees and staking services.
