Amid a crisis of price stagnation and declining market share, Ethereum (ETH) has designated privacy as its next key growth engine. However, some believe that if no relevant results are achieved within 12 months, it will be eliminated, CryptoSlate reported. As privacy assets like Zcash and Monero gain market attention, pressure has grown for Ethereum to secure the transaction confidentiality required by institutions to maintain its status as the 'base payment layer.' Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, presented three technical roadmaps related to privacy: FOCIL for transaction censorship resistance, account abstraction and Keyed Nonces for anonymizing account behavior patterns, and Kohaku for wallet layer privacy.
