Decryption

publishDecryptResult, verifyDecryptResult, getDecryptResult — on-chain decryption result handling

Decryption in CoFHE is a two-phase process:

1. On-chain: Mark a value as decryptable with FHE.allowPublic(ctHash)
2. Off-chain: Client calls decryptForTx(ctHash) via the SDK to get { plaintext, signature }
3. On-chain: Submit the result via publishDecryptResult or verifyDecryptResult

Publishing Results

publishDecryptResult

Publishes a decrypted result on-chain by verifying the Threshold Network signature. The plaintext is stored and can be read via getDecryptResultSafe.

ctHash · ebool | euint8 | euint16 | euint32 | euint64 | euint128 | eaddress · required

Ciphertext handle

plaintext · bool | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64 | uint128 | address · required

Decrypted value from decryptForTx

signature · bytes · required

Threshold Network signature

Reverts if the signature is invalid. The value must have been granted public access via allowPublic before decryption was requested off-chain.

FHE.publishDecryptResult(encryptedBid, bidPlaintext, bidSignature);

publishDecryptResultBatch

Publishes multiple results in a single call. Typed overloads exist for all encrypted types.

euint64[] memory handles = new euint64[](2);
handles[0] = encryptedBid1;
handles[1] = encryptedBid2;

uint64[] memory values = new uint64[](2);
values[0] = bid1Plaintext;
values[1] = bid2Plaintext;

bytes[] memory sigs = new bytes[](2);
sigs[0] = sig1;
sigs[1] = sig2;

FHE.publishDecryptResultBatch(handles, values, sigs);

Verifying Results

verifyDecryptResult

Verifies a Threshold Network signature without storing the plaintext on-chain. Returns bool.

Use this when you only need to act on the decrypted value within the transaction without making it permanently public.

require(
    FHE.verifyDecryptResult(encryptedAmount, amount, signature),
    "Invalid decrypt proof"
);

verifyDecryptResultSafe

Like verifyDecryptResult, but returns false instead of reverting on invalid signature.

bool valid = FHE.verifyDecryptResultSafe(encryptedAmount, amount, signature);
if (valid) {
    // proceed
}

verifyDecryptResultBatch

Verifies multiple signatures in a single call. Reverts if any is invalid.

bool allValid = FHE.verifyDecryptResultBatch(handles, values, sigs);

verifyDecryptResultBatchSafe

Returns a bool[] indicating which entries are valid instead of reverting.

bool[] memory results = FHE.verifyDecryptResultBatchSafe(handles, values, sigs);

Reading Results

getDecryptResult

Retrieves a published decryption result. Reverts if not yet available.

uint256 result = FHE.getDecryptResult(ctHash);

getDecryptResultSafe

Non-reverting version. Returns a tuple with the result and a boolean flag.

(uint256 result, bool decrypted) = FHE.getDecryptResultSafe(ctHash);
if (decrypted) {
    // use result
}
