Installing Private Subnet

Overview

The Rayls Private Subnet is a specialized EVM-based network designed for financial institutions, enabling secure, scalable, and compliant transactions within the Unifi'd ecosystem. This ecosystem merges traditional finance (TradFi) with decentralized finance (DeFi) into a unified framework known as "UniFi", allowing institutions to leverage blockchain technology while meeting regulatory standards.

Rayls Private Subnets, enable institutions to create their own permissioned blockchain environments. These subnets utilize advanced cryptographic techniques such as Zero-Knowledge Proofs and Homomorphic Encryption to ensure data privacy and compliance, while seamlessly connecting to the Rayls Public Chain for interoperability. This combination supports diverse use cases, from tokenization projects to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), enabling institutions to access larger liquidity pools and interact with DeFi protocols in a controlled environment​
