Cryptographers Solve Decades-Old Privacy Problem
One of the applications are ZK-Rollups [1] which allow developers to move heavy computation off a blockchain. The blockchain receives the results and only validates proofs that they are valid. This is especially useful on Ethereum because its computational throughput is pretty low.
There's also ZCash [2], which is a cryptocurrency that lets you make untraceable transactions. This is in stark contrast to Bitcoin or Ethereum, where transaction information is available publicly to everyone. They have a series of blog posts [3] on the math that actually makes it work under the hood.

Top 5 Privacy Coins & Projects with Massive Potential for 2023-2025

What's a Zero-Knowledge Proof?
Definitely not! The first article on the topic is from 1985, when cryptocurrencies were far from being a trending topic. However, this assumption is based on the fact that associating zero-knowledge proofs with blockchain technology can create a privacy-protecting, secure and decentralised environment. ZCash was the pioneer cryptocurrency to bring this technology to blockchains. Today, in addition to it, there are other alternatives such as Horizen (ZEN) and, recently, Tron (TRX) has added this functionality to its platform. They are all small networks – Tron, the biggest of them, only ranks 17th in market cap among all Cryptos – but its potential is great.

Bitcoin Is a ‘Boon for Surveillance’, Says Former CIA Director
For zcash currently, yes. But for the underling tech, no. You scan the blockchain in Zcash to be notified of a payment. But the sender could just as easily send you an out of band message with everything you need to know to spend the money and find the payment.
There's even a draft spec for doing it for Zcash. https://github.com/zcash/zips/pull/420/files#diff-635022fa4a...
