Mars Finance reports that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin posted on X, stating that network layer anonymity has long been an important missing piece in the privacy technology ecosystem. Whether it is on-chain privacy solutions (such as Railgun) or off-chain zero-knowledge applications (such as ZK API tickets), neither has fully addressed this aspect. He also pointed out that there are a considerable number of application scenarios that require low bandwidth but are highly sensitive to latency. Achieving an effective balance between low latency and high anonymity is of great significance for the development of related technological directions.
