I took the NILLION from the minor basket and added $NIL to the main basket....
I'm telling you the reason. I've been reading for 3 hours.
Apple moment = when a technology company creates its own category and becomes the sole standard in that category.
In 2007, Apple redefined the concept of smartphones.
In 2010, Tesla dominated the electric car segment.
In the 2026-2027 period, this opportunity in crypto exists in the "privacy compute / data AI" field.
Nillion has the capacity to create this new category....
Blockchain;
Every transaction is recorded on the chain, Transparency = accuracy, Data is public, Computation is off-chain, Speed decreases, costs increase....
Nillion:
Data is private, only the proof is shared.
Privacy + proof = accuracy.
Data is fully encrypted.
Computation is done on private nodes.
Speed increases, privacy is preserved.
Nillion is no longer "a chain" but the compute brain working behind the chains.
Companies or AI models will be able to share their data with the chain without exposing it. Everything can be proven, but it will remain confidential.
This could be a major turning point for "enterprise adoption" in 2026.
Between 2025–2030, the AI compute market: ~$2.1 trillion $ (McKinsey report).
If even just 1% of this goes to "privacy-preserving compute": a $20 billion market.
If a "first mover" network like Nillion can capture even 5–10% of this market:
yearly revenue could reach between $1–2 billion.
We mentioned that private businesses have 100x-150x potential....
NİLLİON market cap is ranked 420th....
A candidate for the top 50 in the first phase....
A huge profit potential for 2026....
I'm taking it as a staple in the main basket....
Note: I searched for projects like LA and NIL that have had cheap market caps for 4 years but will turn into a giant major. For the first time in 3-4 years, these two emerged... Put them in your basket before their value is understood....!
@den0thic If you say Zama, they are actually very different...
You say, "TEE, ZK, FHE, MPC already exist; each has been developed for years."
But Nillion "doesn't use any of these," it combines all of them for the first time within a compute architecture....
Projects like Aleo, Aztec, Risc Zero validate ZK (proofs validate but do not process data, unrelated)
Secret, Phala, Oasis have hardware security tied to the CPU manufacturer, so they are quite centralized...
Barley > Provides privacy but cannot produce proofs
Fhenix is theoretically good but incredibly slow, so it won't amount to anything in the medium term....
Nillion is the first system that combines these components in a single network, operationally.
Nillion's "NMC (Nillion Multi-Party Compute)" SDK is active in the test environment,
This SDK can currently produce "Proof of Compute Job" (NMC nodes).
It's not yet "mainnet-scale," but a working prototype is available.
So it's not that "there's no production proof,"
"there's just no mass network proof yet."
Most ZK and FHE projects have been at the paper level for 5 years.
Nillion, on the other hand, has released a working compute node prototype within 2 years.
Those who say "there's something done" may be right from a cryptography perspective, but they are looking in the wrong place from an engineering and application standpoint.
Because Nillion is not "an idea that uses cryptography," but the first network that transforms cryptography into an economic model.
As a result, there is currently nothing like it!
