TechFlow news, according to The Block, privacy protocol Nocturne has deployed its V1 version on the Ethereum mainnet, introducing the concept of on-chain private accounts to Ethereum.
According to a statement, the protocol functions as another account rather than a standalone tool or ecosystem. Unlike existing blockchain privacy tools, which typically exist as separate entities, Nocturne integrates privacy directly at the account layer, operating similarly to a smart contract wallet.
The team said Nocturne is compatible with any DeFi protocol that represents state through output tokens—such as Uniswap's exchange tokens, Aave's aTokens, and Compound's cTokens. It plans to gradually extend this compatibility to a broader range of decentralized applications, creating private user accounts on Layer 1 and Layer 2 that are fully interoperable with existing Ethereum accounts.
