Aptos Governance Proposal Vote to Enable Encrypted Transactions to Reduce MEV Risk

TechFlow reported on October 5 that Aptos governance proposal #206 is currently in voting, proposing to enable ChunkyDKG V1 full mode and the encrypted_transactions feature. The mechanism will support encrypted transactions through distributed key generation, hiding transaction content before it enters consensus ordering and then having validators collaboratively decrypt it afterward, helping to reduce frontrunning and MEV risks. Voting on the proposal will end on October 6. Currently, the approval vote share is nearly 100%, but the turnout is only 2.69%, below the 24.8% quorum requirement.
