A Privacy Preserving Protocol is a set of rules and procedures within a blockchain or decentralized system designed to protect the confidentiality of user transactions, identities, or data. These protocols employ advanced cryptographic techniques, such as zero-knowledge proofs or confidential transactions, to enable verifiable interactions without revealing sensitive information. They address the inherent transparency of public ledgers. They enhance data confidentiality.
Context
The development and adoption of privacy-preserving protocols are a significant area of focus in the ongoing quest for enhanced user privacy within the blockchain ecosystem. A key debate involves balancing privacy features with regulatory compliance requirements, particularly concerning anti-money laundering regulations. These protocols are critical for fostering broader institutional and individual adoption of digital assets.
