We have previously mentioned the importance of privacy. Today, let's talk about a hardcore topic—the Miden project.

To be honest, privacy computing has always been a pain point in the blockchain field. Most public chain transactions are transparent, which is not very friendly to user privacy. Miden's approach is to enable on-chain transactions using zero-knowledge proofs and privacy computing mechanisms, allowing you to hide transaction details.

Simply put, it aims to solve the contradiction—achieving both on-chain security and transparency, as well as user privacy protection. This direction is indeed challenging and requires a solid foundation in cryptography and protocol design.

Miden's technical framework is still evolving, and ecosystem development also takes time. For privacy computing projects to truly land in practical applications, there's still a long way to go. However, from a technological innovation perspective, it's worth paying attention to the progress in this area.

zkp mechanics are compelling but the real question is capital utilization at scale... miden's still in that awkward phase where theoretical elegance ≠ protocol dynamics. we'll see if the liquidity depth justifies the complexity tbh

Zero-knowledge proofs sound impressive, but in practical applications, we still have to wait... However, the idea behind Miden is indeed quite interesting. --- Privacy computing has always been a hot potato; can we have both fish and bear paws... I have my doubts. --- It will probably take several more years before Miden can really be used; the ecosystem is something that can't be rushed. --- Basically, it's about finding a balance between transparency and privacy. It sounds easy, but actually doing it is really difficult. --- I usually wait and see with projects like this; only when something is actually implemented will I consider it. --- Zero-knowledge proofs are definitely a direction, but Miden is still in the testing phase, right? --- The fact that privacy issues haven't been perfectly solved for so long shows that it's indeed a tough nut to crack. --- It seems that projects like this will either change tracks or gradually fade away; I’ve never been very optimistic about pure privacy public chains. --- Miden's idea is good; I just don't know when it will actually be usable. --- I can't understand that set of cryptography; anyway, I won't touch it until the ecosystem gets off the ground.

Zero-knowledge proofs are indeed competitive, but Miden's approach is good; it just needs time for the ecosystem to develop.

Miden definitely needs to be watched closely. The technical approach of zero-knowledge proofs is correct, but it's just uncertain when it will truly be rolled out.
