The Ethereum Foundation has signaled support for privacy-preserving wallet tools by reposting content related to Kohaku, a privacy-focused project building on Ethereum. The statement came in the context of attacks and exploit incidents seen over the past week, with the foundation arguing that privacy and security should not be treated as separate goals. It said making privacy a default feature can reduce the risk of attackers using a user’s on-chain history to carry out targeted attacks.
Developer Jordan Enev said the Kohaku team is working to make privacy a standard feature on Ethereum rather than a niche add-on. According to him, the project’s SDK already integrates privacy protocols including Railgun, Privacy Pools, and Tornado Cash. He added that development is becoming more mature and called on more wallet providers to move ahead with related integrations. The remarks place wallet-level privacy tooling back into focus as Ethereum developers and ecosystem participants weigh how to improve user protection after a series of recent security incidents.
