Core Capabilities

Sharded Ledger

Deterministic FNV-1a routing. No coordination overhead. Horizontal scale.

Zero-Knowledge Proofs

Groth16, PLONK, Bulletproofs. Prove compliance without revealing data.

Cryptographic Audit Trail

SHA-256 hash chain. Tamper detection built into every transaction.

Multi-Asset Support

Native currency, fungible tokens, and unique assets with full provenance tracking.

Envelope Encryption

KMS-derived keys with AES-GCM-256. ECDSA receipt signing per shard.

Compliance Ready

SOC 2 controls mapping. RBAC via Casbin. Full audit logging.

Built for Scale. Designed for Trust.

Sankofa's ledger engine uses deterministic sharding via FNV-1a hashing to route transactions without coordination overhead. Each shard maintains its own encrypted, append-only ledger with cryptographic receipt signing — delivering horizontal scalability without sacrificing auditability or trust.
