The Ethereum Foundation’s Privacy and Scaling Explorations team has rebranded as Privacy Stewards of Ethereum (PSE). Such a name change reflects its push to make end-to-end privacy an essential part of the network.
PSE’s ultimate vision is to make privacy on the Ethereum network a norm, not just an afterthought. It aims to achieve this through protections embedded across the entire stack, spanning protocol applications, wallets, and governance.
Their roadmap is structured around three key tracks:
To bring this to life, the PSE prioritizes transfers with PlasmaFold and privacy wallets, new voting systems with Aragon, and confidential DeFi standards for institutions.
Instead of building every solution itself, the PSE aims to collaborate openly with builders, researchers, and projects.
Available on iOS and Google Play, the Best Wallet mobile app positions itself as a highly secure way to manage crypto while on the move.
As a non-custodial wallet, it gives you complete access to your private keys. It also includes protections like 2FA, biometric, and local encryption, so only you can control your crypto holdings.
Even if you happen to lose account access, you’ll easily be able to retrieve your assets thanks to the wallet’s encrypted cloud backups (with no seed or recovery phrase required).
Better yet, it makes it super easy to buy, sell, manage, and swap over 1K assets across not just Ethereum but other major chains like BNB Chain and Polygon.
Moreover, the app has its very own launchpad, allowing you to access the best crypto presales. That, coupled with a swap engine that scans more than 330 DEXs and 30 bridges, offers you the best possible rates.
It also plans to launch more advanced tools, including market intel analytics, stop-loss orders, and derivatives trading.
And that’s not all. Holding $BEST unlocks additional benefits, including governance rights, staking rewards at an 84% APY, and lower gas fees.
