Zcash developer Zakura proposes per-swap viewing keys to protect privacy from quantum computers

Zakura has proposed a wallet-level security feature that would assign a separate viewing key to each ZEC swap made through NEAR Intents, limiting the transaction history a future quantum computer could uncover from a publicly posted refund address. The design aims to prevent quantum attackers from linking users' shielded Zcash payments through a single exposed address.
