Vitalik releases a roadmap for implementing Ethereum privacy with minimal L1 changes

Vitalik Buterin posted on the Ethereum Magicians forum, proposing a "Minimalist L1 Privacy Roadmap", aimed at enhancing Ethereum user privacy while minimizing changes to the consensus layer. The roadmap covers four aspects: on-chain payment privacy, in-app activity anonymization, on-chain read privacy (RPC), and network-level anonymization. Core measures include integrating privacy tools into mainstream wallets, default use of "one address per application", promoting FOCIL and EIP-7701, introducing TEE and future PIR private reading technology etc., with the ultimate goal being to achieve user operation isolation, default private sending and anti-censorship infrastructure. Vitalik emphasized that this plan can be combined with deeper long-term L1 reforms.
