\section{Related Work}
\subsection{Trusted Execution Environments}
\textbf{Intel SGX} provides hardware-based memory encryption and remote attestation through quote generation and verification against Intel's Attestation Service (IAS) or newer Data Center Attestation Primitives (DCAP).
\textbf{AMD SEV-SNP} (Secure Encrypted Virtualization with Secure Nested Paging) enables VM-level isolation with memory encryption and attestation reports signed by the AMD Secure Processor.
\textbf{NVIDIA H100 Confidential Computing} extends TEE protection to GPU memory and computation, enabling confidential AI inference and training workloads.
\textbf{ARM Confidential Compute Architecture (CCA)} introduces realm management for isolated execution domains with attestation capabilities.
\subsection{Blockchain Attestation Systems}
Existing blockchain systems treat attestation as an application-layer concern:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Ethereum}: No native attestation support; relies on oracle networks or centralized verification
\item \textbf{Secret Network}: SGX-specific with single vendor lock-in
\item \textbf{Oasis Network}: ParaTime architecture but limited multi-vendor support
\item \textbf{Phala Network}: SGX-only with centralized gatekeepers
\end{itemize}
A-Chain uniquely provides \textit{protocol-level} attestation verification with multi-vendor support and horizontal scaling.
