The technology offers the potential for DeFi super apps built on Sui that manage liquidity across multiple chains.At the heart of Ika&#39;s technology is its 2PC-MPC cryptographic scheme, which creates secure interactions across chains. Together with Sui’s <a href="https://sui.io/mysticeti?ref&#61;blog.sui.io" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Mysticeti</a>, 2PC-MPC allows Ika to be the first MPC network to enable massive scale and speed, in addition to zero trust security. The naming refers to two-party computation and multi-party computation. In Ika&#39;s model, a user isn’t required to give full control over their asset to a bridge, they remain one party, and the other party is operated by hundreds of Ika nodes, enabling decentralized zero trust security.<img src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdglsjdk-YvcBN8gFdJjoR94cKtzqdGKAjw3P0Pr1R5aKLt4ZRRnxPFjMqKCWMQBFsfNm8Ni7TqRE2HatQx1IR5d6zTXRJV_TZfUZsOB7SY3AgayUZBA9gvE7BYXE87ru6YCmgiftrxgjYJFSsRm0r2vpQI?key&#61;TC1x6f3NiFWKj_f9WxKTBqD8" />Ika’s ultra-fast MPC network powers a wide range of applications on Sui, including:<ul><li>Programmable Bitcoin: Ika unlocks new possibilities for native BTC on Sui, with programmable and secure DeFi and custody.</li><li>DeFi interoperability: Ika’s sub-second speed and scalability enable instant and secure operations across all Web3 ecosystems, bringing liquidity from chains like Bitcoin and Ethereum to Sui.</li><li>Decentralized custody: Ika offers secure, decentralized custody solutions on Sui for digital assets, delivering unmatched security for institutional and individual users.</li><li>Chain abstraction: Ika allows builders on Sui to abstract the complexity of multiple chains for their users, alongside other Sui features such as zkLogin, delivering a perfect user experience.</li><li>AI agent guardrails: Ika enhances AI applications on Sui by providing secure MPC guardrails, ensuring AI agents don’t have full unchecked power, safeguarding user assets.</li></ul>The IKA token will launch natively on Sui, unlocking new functionality and utility in decentralized security. As the native token of the Ika MPC network, IKA will play a pivotal role in powering its ultra-fast, scalable infrastructure, serving as the means to pay for MPC signing services, enabling seamless transactions across the Web3 space.Ika’s <a href="https://docs.dwallet.io/alpha-testnet?ref&#61;blog.sui.io" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">alpha testnet</a> is available on Sui today, with mainnet launch slated for December.
