Golden Finance reported that Ethereum developer barryWhiteHat stated that with the commercialization of the zero-knowledge proof Virtual Machine (zkEVM), an interesting opportunity has arisen: it can provide private smart contract infrastructure while maintaining compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Developers can write Solidity code and compile it using a specific version of the Solidity compiler or some post-processing tools to create private smart contracts.

It follows that there cannot be a private smart contract with a global private state either. For example, applications like Uniswap cannot operate privately.
