ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, Ethereum developers have unveiled a new roadmap called Kohaku, aiming to enhance wallet privacy and security through a modular framework.
The project was announced in a blog post by Ethereum Foundation coordinator Nicolas Consigny, with plans to build a set of privacy and security foundational components. The core of Kohaku is to develop a software development kit (SDK) and a reference wallet to demonstrate the practical effectiveness of the tools. The first version will be presented as a browser extension based on the Ambire wallet, targeting advanced users. Kohaku is being co-developed with well-known teams such as Ambire and Railgun, and is an open-source project, allowing developers to contribute code via GitHub. Its main goal is to reduce wallets' reliance on centralized services for traceable transactions, including features such as private sending and receiving, and it also plans to use tools to add social recovery options. In the long term, the team is committed to elevating wallet security to the device level and creating a native Ethereum browser to ensure secure user interactions.
