CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost said a recent paper examines whether privacy transactions could be implemented directly on Bitcoin. According to his post, the idea would not require a soft fork and could be deployed on Bitcoin’s Layer 1, making privacy transactions a native feature of the network. Darkfost added that he is not a developer and does not have the technical background to assess the proposal in depth, but said he finds the concept compelling. He also said the approach could represent an important direction for Bitcoin’s evolution in line with Satoshi Nakamoto’s original vision, while potentially reducing the appeal of privacy-focused projects such as Zcash and Monero.
