Is private transactions ever coming to protocol or are there other solutions being worked on? I’m not sure if ae would be legally allowed to do it themselves, but something like bitcoin laundry coin join is better than nothing. Is this possible to do in a decentralized way? I’m not an expert on these things but it would be nice to have the option of private tx. Is it a problem that the network does not have high volume right now making it harder to conceal?

The next network upgrade will bring a bunch of mathematical operations to sophia, which will make writing protocols using zkSNARK faster and probably much more feasible than it’d currently be. Afterwards, I’d like to design something using our generalized accounts. I’m not aware of anyone currently working on something in that direction for Aeternity.

The upgrade and zksbarks coming is good especially with generalized accounts although I do not fully understand the benefits.

is there already a timeline for the upcoming iris hardfork? or are there still open topics that should be covered there and aren’t implemented yet?
