Abstract
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have huge potential to be included in metaverse-related applications such as digital ownership management and asset trading. However, existing research identified that privacy-preserving techniques and methods are essential for NFTs for large-scale adoption in the metaverse. This paper conducted an analysis of several existing research works that mainly use zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) and/or commitments to protect privacy for blockchain applications. Based on the results of this comparative analysis, we deducted several assumptions. This paper identifies the potential next steps to design new privacy-preserving techniques that will enable privacy-aware metaverse users to leverage the maximal benefits of the NFTs.
