Vitalik: More people should understand privacy policies. Interfold

CoinFeed reported on May 28th that Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin stated that more people should understand the privacy protocol Interfold, claiming it essentially realizes his vision of MACI (Minimum Anti-Copyright Infrastructure) that he has been advocating for nearly a decade. Interfold targets scenarios such as voting and sealed auctions, based on threshold encryption and homomorphic encryption. Users submit votes with qualified zero-knowledge proofs on-chain, and the system performs aggregation calculations in a FHE environment before threshold decryption. Vitalik stated that this scheme can provide voter anonymity, censorship resistance, and result correctness verification under Ethereum's protection, but its liveness and anti-coercion capabilities depend on the honesty ratio of the M-of-N committee. Currently, it mainly supports additive vote counting, and complex computations are still limited by the cost of ZK-over-FHE.
