Zug, Switzerland, October 22nd, 2025, Chainwire
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.
In migrating its signing layer to Ika, human.tech becomes the first wallet provider to decentralize programmable security and access control, leveraging a global, zero-trust MPC network.
Why It Matters
This partnership establishes a new standard for wallet architecture:
- Decentralized Security: Removes single points of failure – no enclave, no service custody.
- Censorship Resistance: No single entity can block or forge user intent.
- Zero-Trust UX: Human-readable intent validation with secure policy enforcement at the signing layer.
- Protocol-Level Composability: One universal wallet across applications, without iframe custody or per-wallet fees.
A New Foundation for Builders
WaaP is universal and generic, can support Bitcoin, Solana and is also fully EIP-1193 compliant, allowing developers to integrate Human Wallet using the same provider interface common across Ethereum and other EVM-compatible wallets. The integration takes minutes, with copy-paste quick start examples and a developer portal.
Developers gain seamless onboarding, programmable policies, gas sponsorship, and MFA – all enforced cryptographically at the wallet layer.
A New Era for Secure UX
The WaaP model unites user sovereignty and developer simplicity, enabling real-world-grade security and scalability. Combined with Ika’s MPC network on Sui, WaaP extends to cross-chain coordination, making decentralized security and interoperability one and the same.
“Wallet-as-a-Protocol is what Wallet-as-a-Service wanted to be,” said Nanak Nihal Singh Khalsa, Co-Founder of Human Tech. “It gives users ownership, developers composability, and the ecosystem a path to eliminate trusted intermediaries – all made possible by 2PC-MPC.”
