risc0 VS firo

You can actually write zkps in pure Rust, but there's not currently any blockchain integration: https://github.com/risc0/risc0

The performance of ZK systems is improving rapidly, for example the startup I'm at has one which is likely already much faster than what the authors used (development is ongoing): https://github.com/risc0/risc0

The security implications of current decrypting MITM middleboxes are pretty bad so it's worth going to some lengths to find an alternative.

Peter continues his work on walletdb refactoring (PR #1239), which optimizes performance by using a single instance of CWalletDB. It is about 90% done and is estimated to be done by the end of the week.

FIRO, formerly known as Zcoin (XZC), is a privacy focused cryptocurrency that utilizes zero-knowledge proofs which allows users to destroy coins and then redeem them later for brand new ones with no transaction history. Its research created the Lelantus privacy protocol which supports high anonymity sets without requiring trusted setup and relying only on standard cryptographic assumptions.
