Ethereum will win because nobody else offers credible neutrality. Aztec will win because nobody else offers credibly neutral privacy.

70,000 Discord users had their government ID photos leaked last year. Age verification today largely involves collecting IDs and hoping that they never leak…the problem is leaks are inevitable on a long enough time horizon. This is the hidden cost of how most platforms verify age.

V5 is coming up, and it's going to be a good one. Aztec is decentralized, so here's how the next version of the network will be born: - anybody can take the V5 code and deploy it - sequencers will signal to bring it to a vote if they like it - all $AZTEC token holders can then vote to pass it (7 day voting window) - if the vote passes, it can be executed by anyone (after a 2-day delay) We'll be sharing more about V5 in the coming weeks.
Aztec@aztecnetwork

The code for Alpha V5 is ready. V5 will ship with significant security updates, speed improvements, and new features to simplify the privacy UX. Next steps to bring V5 live: 1. Code payload is deployed 2. Sequencers bring to vote 3. $AZTEC holder vote Read: forum.aztec.network/t/azup-2-is-re…

Turns out just trying to build a privacy focused tic-tac-toe game for fun on aztec, helps you see all real world problems that private financial escrows will face when operating on-chain. ps: will write more about it later, just keeping here as a note :)

I'm spending my time, money, and attention based on the idea that a year from now, (late June 2027) privacy infra in crypto will be a baseline product requirement and the dominant narrative across the entire ecosystem. Every app will either be launching its own privacy features or integrating someone else's. The biggest platforms will start talking about acquiring smaller privacy projects on their biz vertical. Mythos-level models, combined with our new understanding of software security, will accelerate the space in ways we can't fully visualize yet. The future of money and human coordination will be encrypted, permissionless, and unstoppable.

Summarized in 10 min all the privacy thesis I started posting 4 years ago and started playing out last year. Cheap edition skills but made with love. Roast me in the comments so I can improve 🙏 (recommended to watch in 1.5x)

This! Privacy only matters if users keep control over what is revealed, who it is revealed to, and why. That’s why selective disclosure matters. Not privacy as a service. Privacy as infrastructure.
