01 THE MACHINE READ
WHY IT MATTERS.
Privacy tooling on Ethereum improves fungibility and usability, but deposit visibility limits full anonymity, so adoption may stay niche.
Privacy features slowly expand Ethereum's usable payment surface
CATALYST TO WATCH
Broader wallet adoption or protocol upgrades
MAIN RISK
Deposit visibility undermines promised privacy
FULL DISPATCH
The relaunched wallet hides payments made on the Aztec Network, while deposits from Ethereum remain visible.
