The main goal of Callisto is to research and develop a reference implementation of a self-sustaining, self-governed, self-funded blockchain ecosystem and development environment. Callisto aims to establish a secure and contribution-friendly environment for further protocol development and improvements. It will rely on a built-in system of smart-contracts to achieve this goal.
ARPA is a Secure Computation Network Compatible With Blockchains They propose a blockchain-based secure computation network of Multi-party Computation (MPC). ARPA cryptographically enables private smart contract, unprecedented data-at-use privacy protection, as well as scalable computational sharding.
