Resources
Good for
- privacy pool experimentation with association-set or proof-of-innocence concepts
- wallet teams tracking Ethereum privacy pool primitives
Avoid for
- production token privacy integrations that require mature docs and stable package APIs today
- private voting or anonymous credential systems
57/100
Readiness measures how much verified integration surface exists for builders and agents. It does not mean the protocol is easy to use — integration difficulty is tracked separately.
