Please somebody do the math
@Saradomineth @zkphub @DavidSteinrueck @Olla_Finance What percentage of apps require programmable privacy in 5 years in crypto?
What percentage of those will be on aztec?
How much value / tps / fees do those apps generate for the network, either via current token economics or future mechanisms added by governance?

We have both, and both can be updated in a single hybrid transaction. 🤯
Seamless public <> private interaction
Aztec has both, because we do both.
Have a nice day.
@aztecnetwork published a full post-quantum roadmap targeting 2030.
The sequencing stands out. Hardened libraries for private data land in early 2027, ahead of any proof system replacement.
Harvest-now-decrypt-later exposure gets addressed first.

Aztec is the biggest underdog story of the crypto industry
What we're building shouldn't be possible, threatens every existing notion of power on the planet
And we plan to win.
Private, decentralized, quantum-proof.
AZTEC SETS END-2030 POST-QUANTUM TARGET
The privacy Layer 2 plans hardened developer libraries for early 2027 to better protect private data. Full migration also depends on @ethereum upgrades.

I’m happy to announce Aztec’s post-quantum roadmap. I can’t predict if or when quantum computers will happen, but we have been preparing since day 1 of designing Aztec.
Aztec today is highly quantum resistant and our protocol already defends against harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks. Migrating to a fully post-quantum system is a major challenge but one we are prepared for.
By the end of 2030, Aztec is going to be fully post-quantum.

Aztec is already quantum resistant, allowing apps and users to bunker proof their accounts.
But updating an entire proving system and privacy network to function in a quantum world is a massive undertaking - and we're making it.
And no, it doesn't require becoming an L1.

Quantum computers don't need to exist yet to threaten your privacy.
Attackers can harvest encrypted data today and decrypt it later.
Aztec was designed so apps can already protect against that.
Here's our roadmap to make the entire network post-quantum:

There’s no more going off grid
We’re all stuck in this global surveillance state
And there’s only one way out
Digital privacy
Imagine this but on a permissionless, decentralized network with actual privacy, full compliance
Privacy is live on Tempo.
Tempo Zones let enterprises keep customer stablecoin balances and payments private, with built-in compliance controls and access to global liquidity.
@deel is the first customer with Zones live in production.

Something only practical on Aztec, where you have private, composable smart contracts.
It should be possible to do private refunds on-chain. That's why I'm interested in connecting payments, disputes and reputation through private smart contracts on Aztec.
The rollout of most secure, stable, and exciting version of the Aztec network is in progress
Can't wait for this launch
Aztec Alpha V6 has been brought to governance.
Voting will start for all ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 holders on Sat Oct 17th and run for a week.
Aztec is the only decentralized L2, and the new network will be brought to life by the community.

From my time at Chainlink I can tell you I’ve always had a similar feeling at Aztec.
Everyone here knows it’s going to be huge, the core community that gets it knows it’s going to be huge, and there’s simply nobody close to having the tech stack we have.
Aztec marines?

Liquid staking is live!
Now you can stake any amount of ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 tokens using @Olla_Finance.
Liquid staking of the ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 token is now live.
Until now, staking ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 directly required at least 200,000 tokens.
@Olla_Finance pools deposits so there’s no minimum at all. Any amount of tokens can be staked today (currently 20% APY).
Welcome new stakers!

At this point it should be clear @zk_money is building the everything privacy app at breakneck speed
all powered by Aztec

Your stablecoins now earn ~3.8%, privately.
Nobody can see your balance, your deposits or what you're making.
Should we announce more things tomorrow?
I can tell you with 1000% confidence that the gap between Aztec tech and the attention the project gets is the biggest I’ve seen during my 10+ years in the industry.
Part of that is that it’s taken a while to reach stability as a decentralized protocol, another part is that we’ve shot ourself in the foot several times doing things the right way at the expense of hype.
But all forces are now converging. I think we’ll be seeing a massive closure of this gap.

And you thought @mert was the only one who could bull post to top 20?
$AZTEC has the best tech, the most ambitious roadmap, and the only real generalized privacy platform.
Permissionless, programmable, unstoppable privacy.

The Aztec team is unbelievably based on the technical side. I’d go as far as saying they’re the most serious project in the entire crypto industry.
Unfortunately we’re in a market of lemons. Integrity is a liability nowadays.

Aztec will be claiming its rightful place as the leading generalized privacy chain over the coming weeks and months.
You’ve been warned.
