Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a ton of interest for L1 privacy. It’s obviously extremely complex, but I really wish we spent like 20% of the brainpower that we spend on “solving MEV” towards L1 privacy. The extent to which we may all just be building surveillance infrastructure is underrated.

I have immense respect for all teams working on app & L2-level privacy, but my fear is none of them have sufficiently strong network effects to impose their values on the world. Bitcoin will never go private. Ethereum is the only chain that could conceivably do this and still be adopted.

Absolutely. Why is this? I would have thought that this way of thinking would be common amongst both researchers and devs. Do you think people are self-censoring?

Yeah, fully agree! Stealth Adresses (ERC-5564) have great potential in brining some ptivacy to L1 without requiring any mixing (which is risky nowadays). The contracts for 5564 are audited and deployed soon and hopefully we'll see many different implementations then.

IDK seems MEV is far more important to most ppl

I think a great first step here is for someone write the equivalent of @vitalik.eth’s rollup centric roadmap but for for privacy, to give the community a vision to rally behind https://warpcast.com/msolomon.eth/0xff928f03

The Privacy Pools and Proof of Innocence stuff seems like the most active area of work for L1 privacy stuff right now. The ZK Wormhole stuff also could be pretty promising. Needs to be built into everyday wallets though. https://ethereum-magicians.org/t/eip-7503-zero-knowledge-wormholes-private-proof-of-burn-ppob/15456

How do we channel brainpower in this direction?
