This week on Aztec: Stage 2 on @l2beat, a walkthrough of private composability, and a new essay from @Zac_Aztec on why privacy needs decentralization.
Here's the recap 🧵
Aztec just hit Stage 2 on @l2beat.
Onchain governance revoked ownership of the rollup contract.
The code is immutable, no admin can override the protocol, and users can always exit via the escape hatch.
Aztec is the only decentralized L2 with privacy native to the protocol.
