🔐 FHE Encryption & Decryption Implementation

Encryption Flow (Frontend)

1. Initialize FHE Instance

// frontend/src/fhevmInstance.ts
class FheInitializer {
  static async initializeWasm(sdk: any): Promise<void> {
    console.log('⚙️  FHEVM SDK: Initializing WebAssembly modules...');
    
    try {
      await sdk.initSDK();
      console.log('✅ FHEVM SDK: Ready (WASM modules loaded)');
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('❌ WASM initialization failed:', error);
      throw new Error(ErrorMessages.WASM_FAILED);
    }
  }

  static createConfig(sdk: any, keypair: Keypair): FheConfig {
    return {
      ...sdk.SepoliaConfig,
      network: window.ethereum,
      keypair,
      relayerUrl: RELAYER_URL
    };
  }

  static async createFheInstance(sdk: any, config: FheConfig): Promise<any> {
    
    try {
      const instance = await sdk.createInstance(config);
      return instance;
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('❌ Failed to create FHE instance:', error);
      throw new Error(ErrorMessages.INSTANCE_FAILED);
    }
  }
}

2. Encrypt Campaign Goal

// frontend/src/components/CreateCampaign.jsx

// Convert ETH to wei
const goalInWei = ethers.parseEther(formData.goal); // e.g., "1.0" ETH

// Create encrypted input
const contractAddress = await contract.getAddress();
const input = fhevmInstance.createEncryptedInput(contractAddress, account);
input.add64(Number(goalInWei)); // Add as euint64

// Encrypt and get proof
const encryptedGoal = await input.encrypt();

// Send to contract
await contract.createCampaign(
  encryptedGoal.handles[0],    // Encrypted value handle
  encryptedGoal.inputProof,    // Zero-knowledge proof
  deadline,
  title,
  description
);

3. Encrypt Pledge Amount

// frontend/src/components/PledgeToCampaign.jsx

// Convert pledge amount to wei
const amountInWei = ethers.parseEther(amount); // e.g., "0.5" ETH

// Create encrypted input
const contractAddress = await contract.getAddress();
const input = fhevmInstance.createEncryptedInput(contractAddress, account);
input.add64(Number(amountInWei));

// Encrypt pledge amount
const encryptedAmount = await input.encrypt();

// Send pledge with ETH
await contract.pledge(
  campaignId,
  encryptedAmount.handles[0],
  encryptedAmount.inputProof,
  { value: amountInWei }  // Actual ETH sent
);

Smart Contract FHE Operations

1. Accept Encrypted Goal

// contracts/FHEDge.sol

function createCampaign(
    externalEuint64 inGoal,
    bytes calldata inputProof,
    uint256 deadline,
    string calldata title,
    string calldata description
) external returns (uint256) {
    require(deadline > block.timestamp, "Deadline must be in the future");
    require(bytes(title).length > 0, "Title cannot be empty");
    
    // v0.9: Convert external encrypted input to euint64 with proof verification
    euint64 goal = FHE.fromExternal(inGoal, inputProof);
    
    uint256 campaignId = nextCampaignId++;
    
    campaigns[campaignId] = Campaign({
        owner: msg.sender,
        goal: goal,
        totalPledged: FHE.asEuint64(0), // Initialize with encrypted zero
        deadline: deadline,
        active: true,
        claimed: false,
        title: title,
        description: description,
        ethBalance: 0  // Initialize ETH balance
    });
    
    // v0.9: Allow contract and owner to access the encrypted goal
    FHE.allowThis(goal);
    FHE.allow(goal, msg.sender);
    
    // Allow contract to access totalPledged
    FHE.allowThis(campaigns[campaignId].totalPledged);
    FHE.allow(campaigns[campaignId].totalPledged, msg.sender);
    
    emit CampaignCreated(campaignId, msg.sender, title, deadline);
    
    return campaignId;
}

2. Homomorphic Addition (FHE Add)

function pledge(
    uint256 campaignId,
    externalEuint64 inAmount,
    bytes calldata inputProof
) external payable nonReentrant {
    Campaign storage campaign = campaigns[campaignId];
    
    require(campaign.active, "Campaign is not active");
    require(block.timestamp < campaign.deadline, "Campaign has ended");
    require(!hasPledged[campaignId][msg.sender], "Already pledged to this campaign");
    require(msg.value > 0, "Must send ETH with pledge");
    
    // v0.9: Convert external encrypted input to euint64 with proof verification
    euint64 amount = FHE.fromExternal(inAmount, inputProof);
    
    // Calculate platform fee (1% of pledge)
    uint256 platformFee = (msg.value * PLATFORM_FEE_PERCENT) / FEE_DENOMINATOR;
    uint256 amountAfterFee = msg.value - platformFee;
    
    // DIRECT TRANSFER: Send 1% fee to platform owner immediately!
    if (platformFee > 0) {
        (bool success, ) = payable(platformOwner).call{value: platformFee}("");
        require(success, "Platform fee transfer failed");
        emit PlatformFeeTransferred(campaignId, platformOwner, platformFee);
    }
    
    // Store the pledge (encrypted amount)
    pledges[campaignId][msg.sender] = amount;
    hasPledged[campaignId][msg.sender] = true;
    
    // Track actual ETH received by campaign (after platform fee)
    ethPledges[campaignId][msg.sender] = amountAfterFee;
    campaign.ethBalance += amountAfterFee;
    
    // Add to total using FHE addition (homomorphic operation)
    campaign.totalPledged = FHE.add(campaign.totalPledged, amount);
    
    // v0.9: Grant access permissions for encrypted data
    FHE.allowThis(amount);
    FHE.allow(amount, msg.sender);
    FHE.allowThis(campaign.totalPledged);
    FHE.allow(campaign.totalPledged, campaign.owner);
    
    emit PledgeMade(campaignId, msg.sender);
}

3. Encrypted Comparison

function isGoalReached(uint256 campaignId) public returns (ebool) {
    Campaign storage campaign = campaigns[campaignId];
    require(campaign.active || campaign.claimed, "Campaign does not exist");
    
    // Compare: totalPledged >= goal (returns encrypted boolean)
    return FHE.ge(campaign.totalPledged, campaign.goal);
}

Decryption (Owner Only)

View Encrypted Total (only campaign owner):

function getTotalPledged(uint256 campaignId) external view returns (euint64) {
    Campaign storage campaign = campaigns[campaignId];
    require(msg.sender == campaign.owner, "Only owner can view total");
    return campaign.totalPledged;
}

Decrypt on Frontend:

// frontend/src/fhevmInstance.ts

export async function decryptValue(encryptedBytes: string): Promise<number> {
  const fhe = getFheInstance();
  
  this.validateCiphertext(encryptedBytes);

  try {
    const values = await fhe.publicDecrypt([encryptedBytes]);
    return Number(values[encryptedBytes]);
  } catch (error: any) {
    console.error('Decryption failed:', error);
    throw this.handleDecryptionError(error);
  }
}

Privacy Guarantees

What's Encrypted:

🔒 Campaign goals (euint64)
🔒 Individual pledge amounts (euint64)
🔒 Total pledged amount (euint64)
🔒 Goal comparison result (ebool)

What's Public:

✅ Campaign title & description
✅ Deadline timestamp
✅ Active/claimed status
✅ Campaign owner address
✅ Total ETH balance (for transparency)

Access Control:

👤 Campaign owner: Can decrypt goal and total pledged
👤 Pledger: Can decrypt their own pledge amount
🚫 Others: Cannot decrypt any encrypted values

🔓 Public Decryption

When Campaign Ends: Reveal Results Publicly

After a campaign deadline passes, the owner can publicly reveal the encrypted results to show transparency. This uses Zama's 3-step public decryption pattern.

🎯 Use Cases

Transparency: Show everyone if the campaign goal was reached
Accountability: Prove total amount raised without revealing individual pledges
Privacy + Public Good: Balance fundraising privacy with final transparency

📊 How It Works: Contract ↔ Frontend

Smart Contract Side (`FHEDge.sol`)

New Functions:

// Step 1: Owner requests decryption (after deadline)
function requestDecryptCampaignResult(uint256 campaignId)

// Step 3: Verify proof and store clear values  
function callbackDecryptCampaignResult(
    uint256 campaignId,
    bytes memory cleartexts,
    bytes memory decryptionProof
)

// Query decrypted results
function getDecryptedResults(uint256 campaignId) view returns (
    DecryptionStatus status,  // NotRequested | InProgress | Completed
    uint64 totalPledged,      // Decrypted total (0 if not decrypted)
    bool goalReached          // Whether goal was reached
)

Events:

event DecryptionRequested(
    uint256 indexed campaignId,
    bytes32 totalPledgedHandle,  // Handle to decrypt
    bytes32 goalReachedHandle    // Handle to decrypt
);

event DecryptionCompleted(
    uint256 indexed campaignId,
    uint64 decryptedTotalPledged,
    bool goalReached
);

Frontend Side

Step 1: User clicks "Reveal Results" (ViewCampaign.jsx → DecryptionResults.jsx)

// Owner only, after deadline
const tx = await contract.requestDecryptCampaignResult(campaignId);
const receipt = await tx.wait();

// Contract emits DecryptionRequested event

Step 2: Off-chain decryption (fhevmInstance.ts)

// Extract handles from event
const totalPledgedHandle = event.args.totalPledgedHandle;
const goalReachedHandle = event.args.goalReachedHandle;

// Call Zama relayer for decryption
import { publicDecryptMultiple } from './fhevmInstance';

const results = await publicDecryptMultiple([
  totalPledgedHandle,
  goalReachedHandle
]);

// Returns: { 
//   clearValues,           // Decrypted values
//   abiEncodedClearValues, // ABI-encoded for contract
//   decryptionProof        // Cryptographic proof
// }

Step 3: Submit proof back to contract

await contract.callbackDecryptCampaignResult(
  campaignId,
  results.abiEncodedClearValues,
  results.decryptionProof
);

// Contract verifies proof with FHE.checkSignatures()
// Stores decrypted values publicly

Step 4: Display results

const results = await contract.getDecryptedResults(campaignId);

console.log('📊 Total Pledged:', results.totalPledged / 1e18, 'ETH');
console.log('🎯 Goal Reached:', results.goalReached);

🎨 UI Components

DecryptionResults Component (frontend/src/components/DecryptionResults.jsx)

Automatically handles the entire 3-step workflow:

Shows "🔍 Reveal Campaign Results" button for owner after deadline
Executes all 3 steps when clicked
Displays beautiful gradient card with decrypted values:
- Total Pledged: X.XXXX ETH
- Goal Reached: ✅ Yes / ❌ No

Integration in ViewCampaign:

<DecryptionResults 
  campaign={campaign}
  contract={contract}
  onUpdate={() => window.location.reload()} 
/>

🔐 Security Guarantees

✅ Cryptographic Proof: FHE.checkSignatures() verifies decryption authenticity
✅ Order Preservation: Handle list order must match between request/callback
✅ Owner Only: Only campaign owner can trigger decryption
✅ Deadline Protection: Decryption only after campaign ends
✅ Replay Protection: Status prevents duplicate decryptions

💡 Privacy vs Transparency

Data	During Campaign	After Decryption
Goal	🔒 Private (owner only)	🔒 Remains private (owner decision)
Individual Pledges	🔒 Private (pledger + owner)	🔒 Always remain private
Total Pledged	🔒 Private (owner sees encrypted)	🔓 Publicly visible
Goal Reached?	🔒 Private (ebool comparison)	🔓 Publicly visible

Key Point: Individual pledge amounts NEVER become public. Only the aggregate total can be revealed.

# 1. Compile contracts
npm run compile

# 2. Deploy to Sepolia
npm run deploy:sepolia
# Save the contract address

# 3. Update frontend/.env
echo "VITE_CONTRACT_ADDRESS=<deployed_address>" > frontend/.env

# 4. Start frontend
cd frontend && npm run dev

# 5. Test in browser:
# - Create campaign with encrypted goal
# - Make pledge (verify 1% fee deduction)
# - Wait for deadline and claim funds  
# - Test refund mechanism

🔧 Technical Details

Smart Contract (FHEDge.sol)

Key Features:

euint64 encryption for goals and pledge amounts
Homomorphic addition (FHE.add) for total calculation
ACL permissions (FHE.allowThis, FHE.allow) for privacy control
Payable pledges with actual ETH transfers
1% platform fee automatic deduction
Claim logic with automatic fund distribution
Refund mechanism for failed campaigns
Reentrancy protection on all transfers

Core Functions:

// Create campaign with encrypted goal
function createCampaign(
    externalEuint64 inGoal,
    bytes calldata inputProof,
    uint256 deadline,
    string calldata title,
    string calldata description
) external returns (uint256)

// Make encrypted pledge (sends ETH, 1% fee deducted)
function pledge(
    uint256 campaignId,
    externalEuint64 inAmount,
    bytes calldata inputProof
) external payable

// Claim funds - transfers all campaign ETH to owner
function claimCampaign(uint256 campaignId) external

// Request refund - returns ETH (fee not refunded)
function refund(uint256 campaignId) external

// Platform owner withdraws accumulated fees
function withdrawPlatformFees() external onlyPlatformOwner

Frontend Architecture

FHE Integration:

ZAMA Relayer CDN for encryption via dynamic ES Module import
SepoliaConfig for network configuration
createEncryptedInput for value encryption
ACL management for permission control

Data Flow:

User inputs ETH amount (0.1, 1, 0.001)
Frontend converts to wei and encrypts with FHE SDK
Smart Contract stores encrypted value + receives ETH (minus 1% fee)
Only owner can decrypt and see totals
Automatic transfer when owner claims

FHE Operations

Encryption (Frontend):

// Convert ETH to wei
const amountInWei = ethers.parseEther(amount);

// Create encrypted input
const input = fheInstance.createEncryptedInput(contractAddress, userAddress);
input.add64(Number(amountInWei));
const encrypted = await input.encrypt();

// Send to contract with ETH
await contract.pledge(
  campaignId,
  encrypted.handles[0],    // bytes32 for externalEuint64
  encrypted.inputProof,
  { value: amountInWei }   // Actual ETH sent!
);
// Note: 1% fee automatically deducted by contract

Homomorphic Addition (Smart Contract):

// Calculate platform fee (1% of pledge)
uint256 platformFee = (msg.value * PLATFORM_FEE_PERCENT) / FEE_DENOMINATOR;
uint256 amountAfterFee = msg.value - platformFee;

// DIRECT TRANSFER: Send 1% fee to platform owner immediately!
if (platformFee > 0) {
    (bool success, ) = payable(platformOwner).call{value: platformFee}("");
    require(success, "Platform fee transfer failed");
    emit PlatformFeeTransferred(campaignId, platformOwner, platformFee);
}

// Track actual ETH received by campaign (after platform fee)
ethPledges[campaignId][msg.sender] = amountAfterFee;
campaign.ethBalance += amountAfterFee;

// Add to encrypted total (all encrypted!)
campaign.totalPledged = FHE.add(campaign.totalPledged, amount);

// Grant permissions
FHE.allowThis(campaign.totalPledged);
FHE.allow(campaign.totalPledged, campaign.owner);

Claim Funds (Direct Transfer):

function claimCampaign(uint256 campaignId) external {
    Campaign storage campaign = campaigns[campaignId];
    
    require(msg.sender == campaign.owner, "Only owner can claim");
    require(block.timestamp >= campaign.deadline, "Campaign has not ended");
    require(!campaign.claimed, "Already claimed");
    
    uint256 amountToTransfer = campaign.ethBalance;
    require(amountToTransfer > 0, "No funds to claim");
    
    // Mark as claimed BEFORE transfer (reentrancy protection)
    campaign.claimed = true;
    campaign.ethBalance = 0;
    
    // DIRECT TRANSFER: Send all campaign ETH to owner's wallet!
    (bool success, ) = payable(msg.sender).call{value: amountToTransfer}("");
    require(success, "ETH transfer failed");
    
    emit CampaignClaimed(campaignId, msg.sender);
}

✅ Only aggregated totals visible to campaign owner (encrypted)
✅ ZAMA FHE ensures mathematical privacy guarantees
✅ No personal data stored on-chain
✅ Wallet-based identity - No registration required
✅ Reentrancy protection on all fund transfers

💰 Platform Fee System

How It Works

Automatic & Instant Fee Transfer:

✅ 1% fee deducted from every pledge
✅ Instantly transferred to platform owner wallet
✅ No manual withdrawal needed
✅ Fully automated and transparent
✅ Supports ongoing development and maintenance

Fee Calculation:

Pledge Amount:         1.0 ETH (100%)
Platform Fee:         -0.01 ETH (1%)  → Sent to platform owner instantly! ⚡
Campaign Receives:     0.99 ETH (99%)

Example Flow:

Campaign #1 by Alice:

User A pledges: 0.1 ETH
  → Platform owner wallet: +0.001 ETH ⚡ (instant!)
  → Campaign #1 balance:   +0.099 ETH ✅

User B pledges: 0.5 ETH
  → Platform owner wallet: +0.005 ETH ⚡ (instant!)
  → Campaign #1 balance:   +0.495 ETH ✅
  → Total campaign:         0.594 ETH

User C pledges: 1.0 ETH
  → Platform owner wallet: +0.010 ETH ⚡ (instant!)
  → Campaign #1 balance:   +0.990 ETH ✅
  → Total campaign:         1.584 ETH

Platform owner total received: 0.016 ETH (all automatic!) 💎
Alice can claim: 1.584 ETH when deadline passes 🎉

Platform Owner Benefits:

✅ Instant payment on every pledge (no waiting!)
✅ No withdrawal needed (fully automatic)
✅ On-chain tracking via PlatformFeeTransferred events
✅ 100% passive income from platform usage

Note: Platform fees are NOT refundable - they are immediately transferred to support ongoing platform maintenance!
