๐ก๏ธUniversal EVM Privacy ๐ก๏ธ Hold assets and interact with DeFi privately, no bridging needed. $RAIL Community Education & News Account
Joined January 2021
RAILGUN has done ~$3 billion in shielded volume. That's enough anonymity to support high 6-7 fig transactions (which occur daily). Privacy isn't like total value locked in DeFi where a protocol can become less liquid over time. Privacy is permanent. It feeds into itself.

Vitalik Buterin today mentioned RAILGUN as an example of a privacy protocol people could use on Ethereum. In fact, RAILGUN is a deployed example of a system @VitalikButerin also theorized with his Privacy Pools paper. All ETH bigbrains value privacy. Thanks for Ethereum, VB. ๐๐

RAILGUN is not a mixer, funds are not mixed in RAILGUN. Each user builds a fully separate zk address within the RAILGUN smart contract. People can only guess at who might be unshielding funds from RAILGUN - there's no way to be sure, and any guesses are dubious at best. 1/3.

RAILGUN uses Privacy Pools, a proof of non-interaction system designed to keep out bad actors while maintaining complete self-custody and anonymity. Privacy is legal. Moreso, privacy is a right.
Privacy is normal. Railgun uses the privacy pools protocol ( ) which makes it much harder for bad actors to join the pool without compromising users' privacy.

RAILGUN is self-custody. RAILGUN 0zk addresses are the only true self-custodial addresses, because even colluding ETH validators CANNOT access your 0zk encrypted assets. Keeping things to yourself does also involve keeping things -to yourself-. Private custody is self-custody.

It's exciting to hear that the Ethereum Foundation plans to start using privacy tools & defi as part of normal operations. Being at the forefront in using tech itself can only promise a more innovative ecosystem - and RAILGUN is the only privacy system ready to handle it.
We are indeed currently in the process of large changes to EF leadership structure, which has been ongoing for close to a year. Some of this has already been executed on and made public, and some is still in progress. What we're trying to achieve is primarily the following.
