Decentralizing Aztec means Aztec is no longer owned by any one entity. So what happens when the network needs to be upgraded? Aztec now has 3 proposals concerning the big question: Should we fork ourselves?

Una gran introducción a Noir para nuestros aficionados que hablan español: youtube.com/watch?v=m4P-sA…

Happy Monday. Your privacy matters.

In @aztecnetwork, the private state will work in a UTXO fashion (while public state will be like EVM). But UTXOs are prone to concurrency issues. Just posted a draft covering the entire problem space, solutions used elsewhere and open questions! discourse.aztec.network/t/utxo-concurr…

🕹 As a combo move, our friends at @aztecnetwork have matched our ETH donations to: 🕵️‍♂️🔒 Jessy’s Zero Knowledge / Cryptography Cohort (zkcrypto-streams.buidlguidl.com) 🙋‍♀️ If you would like to match ETH with @buidlguidl to fund initiatives like this, get in our DMs!!!

We are excited to present the 4th progress report for the @nounsdao Private Voting Research Sprint 🧑‍🔬 The era of private DAO governance is upon us, but how close are we? As a starter, we proved the first Noir Ethereum Storage Proof since our last report 😉 Let's dive in:

We're thrilled to partner with Nym to explore and implement solutions to solve privacy on all levels. With the right combination of technologies and a commitment to user-centric privacy, we can build a more secure and confidential decentralized future together.

It's important to consider all possible privacy vulnerabilities when designing and implementing blockchain solutions. Aztec recognizes this and actively incorporates privacy-enhancing technologies like Nym to ensure that user privacy remains a top priority.

We're excited to announce a partnership with @nymproject that aims to create a web3 privacy solution that is protected from prying eyes at all levels of the stack. Here's how Aztec incorporates Nym's transport layer privacy tech to solve a major privacy hurdle: ↓

If you're looking to get a preview of what's possible with Aztec, check out @NoirLang, the open-source zk programming language that will serve as the foundation for Aztec's smart contract system: github.com/noir-lang/noir…

The opportunity with Layer 2's is extending Ethereum's functionality beyond what the EVM is capable of. It's much harder to bootstrap an entire ecosystem unfamiliar to developers, but that's what Aztec is doing: Building a brand-new public-private hybrid rollup.

Zero knowledge is going mainstream. Check out the @aztecnetwork shoutout from @FortuneMagazine on the history of zero knowledge proofs: fortune.com/crypto/2023/06…

Generalized programmable privacy has always been the goal at Aztec Labs, and we're now on the cusp of realizing a years-long vision: 1️⃣ Aztec 1: #zcash-style private transfers 2️⃣ Aztec Connect: private DeFi 3️⃣ Aztec: generalized hybrid zkRollup Hear @jaosef recount our journey:
