Ika, the fastest parallel MPC network, today announced a major partnership with human.tech, introducing Wallet-as-a-Protocol (WaaP), a new category of decentralized wallet infrastructure secured by Ika’s breakthrough 2PC-MPC cryptography.
No vendor lock-ins. No more renting your wallet. Full interoperability. This marks the first time in crypto that wallet logic, key management, and access control are decentralized across a zero-trust network, providing the wallet functionality via a decentralized Sui protocol rather than a centralized service.
From Wallet-as-a-Service to Wallet-as-a-Protocol
So far, Wallet-as-a-Service (WaaS) solutions have given apps full control over their user’s wallets. This has introduced custodial risks, security issues, and prevented wallets from being used on more than one app.
With WaaP, human.tech and Ika replace that model entirely. A user’s key share remains local, while Ika’s decentralized network operates the co-signing share under zero-trust conditions. No single entity – including human.tech – can access or reconstruct the full private key.
This transforms Human Wallet from a service provider into open, decentralized wallet infrastructure, enabling universal accounts that work seamlessly across dApps, devices, and chains – secured cryptographically.
“2PC-MPC changes what a wallet can be,” said David Lachmish, Co-Founder of Ika. “It removes unilateral control, scales to real-world throughput, and for the first time, makes decentralized, flexible and secure wallets practical at the infrastructure level.”
The Technology Behind WaaP
Ika’s 2PC-MPC (Two-Party Computation Multi-Party Computation) protocol splits private keys into two independent cryptographic shares:
- User share: held and authorized locally by the user
- Network share: operated by Ika’s decentralized 2PC-MPC network
Both shares are required for any signature, and the full key is never reconstructed. This creates a zero-trust signing environment, resistant to both local compromise and network-level collusion, while delivering sub-second signing latency at scale.
