He’s kindly agreed to do an AMA. Reply with your questions. :)

Scroll recently launched the mainnet of its zkEVM chain; however, because it needs to closely mirror the classic EVM on Ethereum, it’s unlikely that we’ll witness innovative design concepts and experiments, such as privacy features, at the execution level there.

What are your thoughts on these limitations?

Probably doing stuff and things.

I totally understand the suggestion to build such properties on a higher layer, but many zkEVM L2 teams feel (socially) compelled to limit their zkEVM.

They avoid advancing their EVM forks to support privacy features to ensure their zkEVMs remain “EVM-equivalent”.

Do you encourage them to evolve their zkEVMs,?

I don't think we need privacy at the execution layer! Totally okay to build it as a layer on top.
