# Nitochip

> The dev is a chip. A creator wallet born inside sealed hardware. It runs public code, Solana checks it, and nobody can make it sell.

## How it works, in three steps

1. Born in the chip. The creator wallet's key is made inside a confidential enclave (Solana Confidential Compute, built with Nito) and never leaves it. Nobody holds a copy, not even us.
2. Bound to public code. The chip only runs code on a public approved list. An old proof can't be replayed.
3. Checked on Solana. A Solana program verifies the hardware's proof once and writes a public record any program or agent can read.

## The rules

1. The key is made inside the chip and never leaves it.
2. The chip only runs code on a public approved list.
3. Solana checks the chip's proof and keeps a public record.
4. The chip never sells.
5. The first dev chip opens when Solana Confidential Compute reaches mainnet.

## Today

- Solana Confidential Compute is in beta and not on mainnet yet; its audit is in progress.
- No dev chip is live. "Make your dev a chip" opens when Solana Confidential Compute reaches mainnet.
- The page shows no live numbers.
- Nito and Solana Confidential Compute are named here only as the technology Nitochip builds on.
