Balancing Privacy and Compliance
At the recent Consensus Hong Kong event, Grayscale's legal officer explored key features of privacy-focused digital currencies. He highlighted how public blockchain transparency could expose sensitive business information in certain scenarios, while privacy technologies offer fresh solutions to address this challenge.
Breakthrough in Selective Disclosure
Taking Zcash as an example, its core technology allows users to selectively reveal transaction details in specific circumstances. This mechanism can satisfy regulatory compliance requirements, such as proving tax obligations have been fulfilled, while maintaining daily transaction privacy.
Institutional Innovation Trends
Grayscale has established significant Zcash investment offerings and is researching the feasibility of converting them into ETFs. This approach aligns with the firm's previous product innovation strategies in other digital asset sectors, reflecting recognition of privacy technology's long-term value.
