L2BEAT launches privacy protocol ratings against five adversary profiles

  • —L2BEAT rates privacy protocols against five adversary profiles with no single overall score
  • —No protocol covers all five: Zcash resists on-chain analysis but is weaker against network surveillance
  • —Privacy Pools and similar systems deliberately leave a door open for origin-of-funds checks
  • —From July 2027, EU AML rules will bar CASPs from holding anonymous accounts and handling privacy coins
Why it matters: It gives users a technical benchmark for comparing privacy protocols as EU AML rules tighten and criminal cases against developers continue.
