Summary
- Ethereum Foundation spinout EthSystems is building privacy infrastructure for banks and other financial institutions, arguing that confidentiality, not scalability, is the biggest barrier to moving real-world financial activity onto public Ethereum.
- Founder Mo Jalil said institutional demand has shifted from experimental blockchain pilots to production deployments, with banks increasingly looking for privacy-preserving tools that enable them to transact on public blockchains while meeting regulatory requirements.
