Privacy Pools protocol
Overview
Privacy Pools is a protocol that enables private transactions on Ethereum by allowing users to deposit and withdraw funds using zero-knowledge proofs. It introduces 'association sets' to enable users to prove they are not connected to illicit activity while maintaining privacy. The concept was proposed in a 2023 paper by Vitalik Buterin, Jacob Illum, Matthias Nadler, Fabian Schär, and Ameen Soleimani.
