Institutional Privacy vs. Consumer Privacy: The Gap Institutions Cannot Ignore
While privacy tokens like Zcash grab headlines during market turbulence, there’s a quieter but equally important parallel conversation: system-level privacy.
Alex Gluchowski, CEO of Matter Labs (ZKsync), pointed out a crucial distinction that many overlook:
“There is cypherpunk privacy (account-level privacy) and institutional privacy (system-level privacy). Institutions need full visibility over their own flows while keeping that data private from everyone else.”
Why does this matter?
Banks and financial institutions are actively exploring zero-knowledge systems (ZK) to enable private transactions on blockchain. But here’s the problem: they can’t move forward without system-level privacy.
Blockchain transparency is an advantage, but for institutions handling billions in daily settlements, full data exposure is a regulatory no-go.
Reading between the lines
While retail celebrates Zcash, institutions are quietly building more sophisticated ZK infrastructure. This suggests that the next wave of blockchain adoption may not come from headline-grabbing altcoins, but from protocol-level privacy technology designed specifically for institutional compliance.
The question you should be asking: Is the market correctly pricing in this need?
