The Ethereum Foundation’s Commitment to Privacy | Ethereum Foundation Blog

The Ethereum Foundation (EF) says privacy must be a core part of Ethereum, and it is expanding its privacy work into a new Privacy cluster coordinated by Igor Barinov. The cluster has 47 researchers, engineers, coordinators and cryptographers, and includes PSE projects such as Private Reads & Writes, Private Proving and Private Identities, along with the Institutional Privacy Task Force (IPTF) and Kohaku, a privacy-preserving wallet and open-source wallet SDK. The EF states that PSE has supported privacy research since 2018, building over 50 open-source R&D projects, including Semaphore, MACI, zkEmail, TLSNotary and Anon Aadhaar.
