"People who prefer pragmatic privacy over maximal privacy or argue that decentralisation doesnt matter in Web3they dont need blockchain. People who are creating abundance and increasing the total value in the world need blockchain for products and services that can't exist without one and that requires decentralisation. That's what Aztec's doing. @aztecnetwork couldn't exist in a centralised ledger. Privacy-preserving systems need to be decentralised because they need to be credibly neutral similar to the internet. It can't be responsible for the traffic going through the network or have the"

"This is a huge milestone for us. Our testnet is now fully decentralised in any metric. I'm hugely proud of the work that went into this. We don't just talk at Aztec - when we say we're going to do something we do it 1/5 Aztec just entered a critical phase: Adversarial Testnet. The network is designed to be private and decentralized from day one.

"The right to financial privacy and encrypted information are foundational to the liberal principles of freedom. Yet as the world moves towards becoming a cashless society we have blundered our way into warrantless financial surveillance. Weve left a financial fingerprint with nearly every online interaction and anyone with enough money could paint a picture of your daily life by purchasing (or stealing) these digital ledgers of activity. So while some of us are building tools to reclaim privacy governments say theres no justification for citizens to hide their financial activity. When"

"10 years ago Ethereum showed us a glimpse of what was possible. The next [--] years will be nothing like the first - because of privacy. Private data on-chain unlocks identity credentials real-world assets and allows blockchain to be a bridge between our online and offline spaces. The first [--] years were groundbreaking but we're only just getting started. Happy birthday. The missing somETHing is privacy. In the next decade programmable privacy will extend Ethereum beyond Web3 to serve everyone. @Zac_Aztec & @samonchain (@ethereumfndn) double down on its original promise: privacy as a foundation"

"Hi folks I have spent the last few weeks dogfooding Aztec's smart contract docs and resources and I want to address an elephant in the room. Currently the docs aren't very good. Until recently the bulk of our resources were focused on launching a fully decentralised testnet and ensuring it is working and stable - and in hindsight we have not been putting enough attention on our documentation and learning resources. I have been personally dogfooding our docs by building an Aztec dapp and have shared my observations more widely with my team. Critical material is missing such as a basic protocol"

Our most important principle for L2s says that we wont do exactly this; we would obviously never run L2s in the way Vitalik depicts them. We are not stupid and we know our users would reject that. I guess its on brand for Vitalik doublespeak to use a deceptive L2 to critique theoretical deceptive L2s that arent real but an X tweet is not where I would expect it. More importantly we believe everyone deserves to use L2s and are committed to free access"
