Here's how privacy actually scales on Ethereum: execute contracts locally, then let L1 verify the math through zk proofs. The architecture keeps computation off-chain while anchoring security back to the mainnet. If Miden can nail solid developer tooling, smooth wallet integration, and transparent compliance mechanisms, you're looking at real-world use cases—payments, gaming, identity management—operating privately without surrendering Ethereum's security guarantees. It won't be flashy headlines, just quiet, reliable infrastructure that actually works.
