Vitalik Buterin Pushes for ‘Privacy Pools’ to Balance Anonymity With Regulatory Compliance

Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin has coauthored a research paper on a privacy-preserving blockchain protocol that aims to balance user anonymity with regulatory compliance. The paper explores the concept of a neutral infrastructure, building upon the Privacy Pools protocol introduced by Ameen Soleimani. The protocol allows users to mix transactions and generate zero-knowledge proofs to confirm compliance without revealing their identity.
