My third (and last) post in my series on obfuscation (iO): local mixing https://vitalik.eth.limo/general/2026/08/21/obfuscation_part_iii_local_mixing.html Local mixing is a very different philosophy from the other two, no prior background in lattices required, and very different tradeoffs (eg. in terms of computational overhead, it's viable today; the entire question is verifying the security of what's ultimately a novel family of cryptography). I highly encourage following their work, they plan to publish much more soon.

Bitcoiners deserve a lot of credit for pioneering many of these ideas (see Utreexo). But yes, this is what the current proposed Ethereum scaling strategy looks like in action. We want Ethereum to have the best of UTXO-style state, dynamic state, and everything in between, allowing the great majority of Ethereum's activity to be hyperscaled without sacrifice to decentralization, ease of node running and censorship resistance. https://firefly.social/post/x/2088988935489777918
