also, don't get it twisted, we *are* doing great on this
-->FOCIL is one of the most hardcore things ever on a smart contract chain, this is literally GANGSTA shit, like blasting Death Grips at 120db in an upscale suburban white neighborhood . . . Ethereum is the only smart contract chain where censoring validators feel it in their pocketbooks. . .
-->Kohaku and RAILgun are a deadly duo
these things can't translate into simple stories to buy ETH and use Ethereum mainnet because we keep getting in our own way & too much of the community still thinks Robinhood having an L2 is going to be the thing that pumps ETH to valhalla...
I think it's still a bit hard for people to grasp how privacy on Ethereum will look 1/2 years from now just because how different it will be from today.
But the best mental model is: at least feature parity with regular private transfers à la Zcash + a variety of private DeFi apps, all fully trustless/unstoppable
AND
10x better UX and protections with Kohaku (including anon broadcast, private reads, et.c...)
