Astar vs Integritee

Astar Network is a layer-1 blockchain built on Substrate that supports both EVM and WebAssembly smart contracts. It is designed to be a smart contract hub for the Polkadot ecosystem, providing developers with a one-stop shop for building and deploying dApps.

Integritee is a blockchain project focused on providing privacy-preserving solutions for dApps and smart contracts. It aims to enable confidential computing on public blockchains, allowing sensitive data to be processed securely without compromising privacy. Integritee utilizes trusted execution environments (TEEs), such as Intel SGX, to create secure enclaves where data can be processed confidentially. This ensures that data remains encrypted and inaccessible to anyone, including the network validators or operators, while it is being processed. This idea opens up new possibilities for privacy-focused applications in finance, healthcare, and so on.
