In the recent high-quality online seminar, the EVM compatibility solution for a certain privacy-focused public chain sparked quite a bit of discussion. Many developers and investors raised the same question: since the project team has already developed their own privacy settlement protocol (industry term: distributed settlement and delivery system), why bother with EVM adaptation? Does this imply a compromise to the market?

The technical lead provided an interesting answer during the discussion. He emphasized that the EVM layer is not simply an embedded auxiliary module inserted roughly, but shares the same technical foundation with the underlying privacy protocol. In other words, the two are "sibling twins" in architecture.

This detail is very important. In some public chain projects, the mainnet and the EVM compatibility layer need to rely on cross-chain bridges to interact, which not only introduces additional complexity but also brings security risks related to bridging. However, this project's design approach is different — any application deployed on the EVM layer can directly utilize the protection mechanisms and compliance features provided by the core privacy protocol. There is no need for cumbersome cross-chain processes between the two layers, resulting in a seamless user experience.

From a developer's perspective, what does this mean? Projects and contract engineers in the Ethereum development ecosystem can migrate using familiar toolchains and development patterns, while automatically gaining the unique privacy advantages of this public chain — the appeal of this "painless migration" is obvious. What the project team has done is essentially transform and present a sophisticated privacy technology in a way that is more easily accepted by developers, without making any technical compromises or weakening.
