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: aztec.network/blog/post-quan…
Many people’s most honest conversations this year were with chatbots owned by companies that have their billing address.
@P_Inference keeps the them separate: wallet payment, no account, and prompts encrypted the prompt before they're sent. V6 launch partner, now in open beta.
🔓 Private Inference is now in Open Beta
No more whitelists - login now at privateinference.gg
🧠 Frontier and open models side by side, in one chat and one OpenAI-compatible API. Fund a session once from your wallet. Each request is held at its maximum cost, and you pay only for what you actually use.
💸 Pay your way:
· USDC on Base
· cUSDC on Aztec, privately
· ZEC from any wallet
No model accounts, no cards, no monthly plans.
🔐 You decide how private each request is:
· Zero data retention, the default
· Standard routes, usually cheaper
· Private execution (beta): your browser encrypts the prompt to a model in an attested TEE and checks the attestation itself
🤝 Bring your friends. Your referral code sits at the top of every page, and friends you bring in earn you balance credit.

CurveSmash is live on @YukonResearch, in partnership with @eigenlabs.

If you're still concerned about the Post-Quantum world, then this is the talk for you.
Join @Zac_Aztec at the Cypherpunk Congress in Mumbai on November 2nd!
More information below 👇
Post-Quantum cryptography is challenged by rapid AI developments.
@matthew_d_green claims "there is a 1% chance we live in Minicrypt, and a 15% chance we functionally lose confidence in our existing public-key encryption algorithms."
@drakefjustin invites people to the bunker mode.
@Zac_Aztec "without post-quantum public-key cryptography, we are all a little bit *screwed*".
Take a deep breath. Calm down. Let experienced cryptographers do the talking.
Welcome, @Zac_Aztec x @aztec & @jbaylina x @ziskvm - encryption heavyweights who will do a fireside on the state of cryptography, AI threats, PQC and more.

Adding more since V4, @nyxmoney is bringing Ethereum receiver addresses that forward straight into your private account, plus private ETH, with V6.
Nyx continues to be an official Aztec Network partner, and will ship additional updates with Alpha V6. Stay tuned!
Your intent is your strategy. Broadcast it and anyone can trade ahead of you.
@xochi_fi routes intents through competing solvers so nothing hits the mempool. With V6, settlement on Aztec is shielded too.
Place a trade yourself and watch what never shows up onchain.
Thanks to @ChangeNOW, getting ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 is even simpler!
Ethereum, but your business stays yours 🕶️
$AZTEC powers @aztecnetwork, a privacy-first Ethereum L2 where apps can mix public and private data, transactions, and smart contracts.
Privacy as infrastructure, not an add-on.

Xochi.fi will be enabling Shielded Settlement via @aztecnetwork, as an official launch partner with Aztec V6! Audited by @NethermindSec.
It's privacy szn 🖤
Every trade you place in public is information someone else can act on.
Xochi.fi routes around that: sign a gasless intent, solvers compete to fill it, and nothing hits the mempool.
Excited to announce @xochi_fi as an official V6 launch partner.
Skip the mempool, hide the recipient, and let solvers bid for your fill across 8 chains.
Xochi.fi, the agentic dark pool.

Every Aztec transaction can do any combination of the following:
1. Verify a passport from 140 countries
2. Encrypt data
3. ML inference
4. Pay people privately
5. Verify passkey signatures
6. Run a public VM
7. Read / write Ethereum contracts
8. Whatever you want...
It’s a beautiful day to stake your $AZTEC, and Olla is the home of liquid staking on Aztec!

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.
