Phala chain
Overview
Phala Network is a decentralized cloud computing platform providing confidential, verifiable computation for AI and Web3 applications, using hardware Trusted Execution Environments so that data stays private and results remain provable. Its current focus is confidential AI infrastructure — private LLM inference, sealed agents and verifiable compute — running on hardware such as Intel TDX and NVIDIA H100/H200 GPUs. Phala originally launched as one of the first Polkadot parachains in 2021 and has since migrated to Ethereum, finalizing an Ethereum layer-2 migration in November 2025. PHA is the network's native token.
Within the DeFi Intel graph, Phala connects to 6 tracked entities, most strongly to Ethereum, Polkadot, OP Stack.
