About this Episode


This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Ian and Jacob, the founders of secretnodes.org and the puzzle report explorer for Secret network, a Cosmos-SDK blockchain with privacy-preserving smart contracts.

The Secret Nodes project was established in 2018, we're a grassroots organization that believes society is facing a fork in the road in regards to privacy, security, data rights and their trend towards further degradation. Its aim is to be a refuge at this impasse, and are committed to supporting the enigma ecosystem by helping to empower its stakeholders.

The puzzle report is an open source blockchain explorer made by the Secret Nodes project and, currently, support Enigma, Kamut and Secret.

The Secret Network is a blockchain with privacy-preserving smart contracts. That means applications built on Secret can utilize encrypted data without revealing it to anyone, even the nodes in the network.


We spoke to Ian and Jacob about Secret Nodes and:
  • what the lack of privacy may lead to
  • the “old” days of blockchain
  • hidden dev taxes
  • what Secret Nodes are all about
  • decentralization of POS stakes
