There is nothing I want more than for Ethereum to lead on privacy (scalability has always been a second priority for me tbh; not implying it's not important to be clear). Not conditional privacy. Unconditional. Long-term, I shouldn't need to interact with a smart contract just to shield a simple ETH transfer. Privacy should be native at the L1. Look, I've been using Monero & Zcash for some time already (on that note, please Ledger ship shielded addresses). I use them because their privacy is built-in & the UX is pretty smooth. That's exactly what I want from Ethereum. Simple, private, native payments. No extra steps. If we want to onboard people to privacy at a global scale, it must be native and easy. Full stop.
