Sceptre for Partisia - all you need to get started

Sceptre is expanding to Partisia Blockchain, bringing liquid staking to a new ecosystem designed around Digital Trust.

For many in the Sceptre community, Partisia Blockchain may be unfamiliar. While most blockchains focus primarily on transparency and scalability, Partisia takes a different approach. It introduces a Digital Trust Architecture designed to enable confidential computation, verifiable outcomes, and privacy-preserving collaboration across decentralised systems.

Sceptre has worked with Partisia Foundation to bring liquid staking to this network.

In this guide, we’ll explore what Partisia Blockchain is, why its technology matters, and how you can participate through Sceptre.

What is Partisia Blockchain?

Partisia Blockchain is a public blockchain built to support confidential computation and verifiable digital coordination.

The ecosystem is stewarded by Partisia Foundation, a Swiss nonprofit organisation responsible for supporting the development, research, and adoption of the technology behind the network.

At the heart of the ecosystem is a Digital Trust Architecture that combines two core technologies:

• Blockchain, which provides decentralised coordination and verification

• Multi-Party Computation (MPC), which enables confidential computation on private data

Traditional blockchains excel at transparency and verification, but they typically require data to be visible to everyone on the network. This can limit their ability to support real-world use cases where sensitive information must remain private.

Partisia Blockchain addresses this by allowing data to be used and verified without being revealed.

This capability enables new forms of digital collaboration across organisations, markets, and jurisdictions while preserving privacy and compliance.

The technology behind Partisia Blockchain is built on decades of cryptographic research. Members of the founding team have been researching multiparty computation since the 1980s, contributing to foundational work in modern cryptography, including research related to the Merkle–Damgård construction widely used in cryptographic hashing.

Today, this research has evolved into practical infrastructure supporting confidential computation for decentralised systems and enterprise environments alike.

What Is Multi-Party Computation (MPC)?

Multi-Party Computation (MPC) is a cryptographic technology that allows multiple parties to compute a shared result using their private data without revealing the underlying inputs.

Each participant keeps their data private, while the network computes the final result collectively.

Importantly, the data used in these computations is never exposed to:

• other participants

• network operators

• validators

• or even the Partisia Foundation itself.

Only the authorised result of the computation is revealed.

This allows sensitive data to be used safely in decentralised systems without requiring a trusted intermediary or exposing confidential information.

Many blockchain ecosystems use MPC primarily for key management, where private keys are split between nodes for security.

Partisia Blockchain goes further.

Its architecture supports programmable confidential computation, meaning developers can define which data remains private, how computations are performed, and what results are revealed.

This enables privacy-preserving logic directly within decentralised applications.

Real-World Example: Lifecycle Tokenisation of Assets

To understand why confidential computation matters, consider how real-world assets are typically tokenised today.

Most tokenisation systems represent a single point in time — ownership of an asset.

However, real-world assets have complex lifecycles involving multiple stakeholders and sensitive operational data.

For example, consider an automotive financing structure.

A vehicle manufacturer produces cars that are financed through debt products. Over time, the value of those assets depends on real-world data such as:

• production information

• inspection reports

• supply chain data

• revenue performance

Much of this information is commercially sensitive and cannot simply be published on a public blockchain.

Using multiparty computation, these stakeholders can contribute data to a shared computation without revealing the underlying information.

The result is a verifiable digital representation of the asset lifecycle, sometimes referred to as a digital twin.

For example:

Factory production data

↓

Supply chain and inspection reports

↓

Lifecycle performance data

↓

Confidential computation verifies asset value

↓

A tokenised representation of the asset reflects this verified state.

This approach allows real-world assets to become verifiable and programmable within digital markets.

Once these assets are represented in this way, they can interact with decentralised financial infrastructure, including exchanges, lending systems, and liquidity networks.

This is where ecosystems like Partisia Blockchain and infrastructure such as Sceptre’s liquid staking play an important role. They help create the liquid, participatory markets that allow digital assets and tokenised systems to function at scale.

What Is the $MPC Token Used For?

The $MPC token is the native utility token of the Partisia Blockchain ecosystem and plays several important roles within the network.

Securing the Network

Validators stake $MPC tokens as collateral to help secure the blockchain and validate transactions. Token holders who do not operate validators themselves can still participate by delegating their tokens or using liquid staking solutions such as Sceptre.

Enabling Confidential Compute

$MPC tokens support the execution of smart contracts and confidential computations on the network, allowing developers to build applications that use private data without exposing it publicly.

Interoperability and Payments

Partisia Blockchain also supports a Bring Your Own Coin (BYOC) model, allowing users to interact with the network using assets from other ecosystems. Supported assets include:

• ETH

• wBTC

• USDT

• BNB

• MATIC

• USDC

This approach helps reduce fragmentation across blockchain ecosystems while allowing Partisia’s privacy-first infrastructure to operate across multiple networks.

Where Can You Get MPC?

There are several ways to acquire $MPC tokens.

The easiest option is through Partisia zkCross, the native decentralised exchange within the Partisia ecosystem, where users can swap popular cryptocurrencies for MPC.

MPC is also available on centralised exchanges including MEXC and KuCoin, with MPC/USDT trading pairs available at the time of writing.

You can also check CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko for the most up-to-date list of supported exchanges.

Compatible Wallets

Partisia currently supports several wallets that allow users to interact with the ecosystem:

• Koala Wallet 

• Metamask

• Parti Wallet

• Ledger hardware wallet

Once a compatible wallet is installed, users can connect directly to decentralised applications within the Partisia ecosystem.

How Sceptre Liquid Staking Works on Partisia

Sceptre makes staking $MPC simple and flexible.

To begin, users connect a compatible wallet to the Sceptre application, navigate to the staking interface, and choose the amount of MPC they wish to stake.

In return, they receive $sMPC, Sceptre’s liquid staking token.

$sMPC represents the user’s staked position and automatically accrues staking rewards. As rewards are collected from the network, the value of $sMPC increases relative to $MPC.

Behind the scenes, Sceptre distributes staked tokens across multiple validators on Partisia Blockchain to reduce operational risk and improve reliability.

Similar to Sceptre for Flare, the platform charges a 10% fee on rewards, which is already accounted for in the displayed APY.

If a user wishes to unstake, they can initiate the process directly within the Sceptre interface. A 14 -day cooldown period begins, after which the underlying $MPC tokens become available to claim. During this time you will still accrue rewards. 

What This Enables

Liquid staking plays an important role in strengthening the Partisia Blockchain ecosystem.

By allowing token holders to stake while retaining flexibility, liquid staking helps increase participation in network security while also supporting liquidity across decentralised markets.

As more participants engage with the ecosystem, infrastructure such as exchanges, lending systems, and tokenised assets can develop more effectively.

This participation helps create the foundations for broader decentralised financial coordination within the network.
