# Ethereum Privacy Ecosystem: report
|
|
|
|
Research will cover comprehensive & up to date report on the state of privacy in Ethereum.
|
|
|
|
## **Details**
|
|
|
|
Ethereum ecosystem lacks detailed & actual report covering all the projects contributing to Ethereum privacy stack. This creates missunderstanding & shallow view on the state of privacy in Ethereum - when people can name several hyped projects, but can't see a bigger "towards the full-stack privacy" picture.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ethereum Privacy Ecosystem will structure activities around privacy covering:
|
|
|
|
- **project diversity**: featuring not just well-known projects like Aztec, but newcomers like Nocturne
|
|
- **dev-friendly**: analyze privacy-centric hackathons from ETHRome to ETHBerlin (events, projects)
|
|
- **innovation**: emerging concepts from stealth-addresses to EIP-7503
|
|
- **tech breakdown**: specify underliying tech/approaches from ZK to PP
|
|
- **funding**: provide approach to privacy funding in Ethereum (sources from Gitcoin to VCs; practical examples from 2023)
|
|
- **challenges**: map areas to be tackled by the next generation of devs on the way to Vitalik's cypherphunk vision (like Nocturne's privacy policy)
|
|
|
|
_Important purpose_:
|
|
- create privacy-centric vocabulary that will help builders, researchers, startupers speak common language & empower existing privacy stack.
|
|
- visualise complex Privacy Ecosystem in infographics
|
|
|
|
## Homework
|
|
1. [Privacy services DB](https://github.com/web3privacy/explorer). We have the majority of the Ethereum-related projects in our database (need to actualize the data).
|
|
2. [Extensive Privacy project profile](https://github.com/web3privacy/explorer). Currently we are building platform that will feature detailed privacy project profile from on-chain data to funding. It will be used a source of data inputs to the research.
|

|
|
|
|
### 2. Deep research
|
|
Purpose: collect detailed data on every project from the links to the product-readiness.
