According to CoinMeta, Miden is the first blockchain that is not of the EVM type, and it is connected to a broader crypto ecosystem through Agglayer. Miden is a privacy-centric Turing-complete smart contract blockchain, similar to Ethereum's smart contracts. Miden brings general programming capabilities to privacy-oriented blockchains, and Agglayer now connects not only to EVM chains but also to fundamentally different blockchain architectures.
