Another reason I'm going head first into confidential VMs and compute.
Fireworks, the most highly-valued out of a growing group of inference providers, told customers including Harvey that it had been hit with a hack that exposed customer data. Some customers are now considering moving their business off the platform.

Curious how the Network Sustainability Mechanism is progressing since the NU7 launch? Check out this explorer to monitor the share of fees accumulating to the reserve.

I now realize how lucky and fortunate I was to have a job that didn't feel like one for the last 9+ years in crypto.
Doing something I loved, a mission I respected, and having full autonomy to solve to problems I thought were important is a super rare trifecta.
It's hard to explain this on a job application/resume, and finding what's next has been brutal, but I hope I can one day feel the magic again!

Scaling Zcash to Visa-level throughput requires a next-generation networking stack. We're excited to share P2Pv2, which you can try out today in Zakura!

🥳 We just reached $50K+ in settled transactions!
• $50,874.18 in all-time volume
• 566 in settled orders
• 151 unique accounts
• $16.18K volume in zcash:native
• 126 orders used Zcash (buy, sell, pay)
Brazil still leading, but India, Peru, and Venezuela already crossed the $1,000 milestone and are growing in usage!
Just landed at #ZCON7 and the socials are getting spicy!! Looking forward to some productive conversations!

Time to build!!! #LFG
Today, we announce Zcash JS, the ultimate JavaScript Swiss-knife for building anything with Zcash.
This allows you to build a Zcash application for the web, server, or mobile, safely and securely, with top notch DX.
What can you build with it?
Anything, from wallets, light client, data dashboards, to anything that you can imagine.
We are committed to actively maintaining it and building an ecosystem of toolings and libraries around it.
Give it a try, links in the comment 👇

Glimpses from our Zcash meetup in SF.
We had @_TomHoward from @ZcashLabs talking about Zcash, where we are with the project, and where we are headed, some nice Mexican food + Zcash onboarding.
Thanks everyone for attending, and thanks to @RIFTHQ for co-hosting this.
We can't wait to do season 2 of this.

We did a banger zcash event at @CalBlockchain with @zypherpunks.
Haha, we also vibecoded a fun zcash app for it as well, where:
- you spin a lottery wheel
- you win some random amount of ZEC
- and get onboaeded with Vizor
I am super bullish all the new talent being attracted to Zcash.

Bitcoin, with its 21 million coin cap, is a sustainable store of value.
Ethereum, with EIP-1559, is a sustainable medium of exchange.
Zcash is about to have both. It already has a 21 million cap, and with ZIP-235’s upcoming transaction fee burn, it becomes a sustainable medium of exchange.
Killer quests to talk about the thing that makes privacy and scalability works
TOMORROW. Live on stream with @ilblackdragon, @mert, @zkDragon and @tulipking AT 1015am est
What does the future look like for our coins

Announcing Zypherpunk!
We are calling up builders, researchers, and creators to come and shape the future of Zcash.
Our aim is to create an entry point for new talent in Zcash, where they can learn, contribute, meet like-minded people, and also get rewarded for their efforts.
Dozens of developers are already contributing via Zypherpunk with projects like thus-spoke-zakura, and more are being created as we speak.
We will be focused on the following:
- building more projects like thus-spoke-zakura collaboratively with developers
- creating content and media that accelerates developer-focused education for Zcash
- events and meetups that bring more high-quality technical talent to Zcash
- hackathons to identify the next big projects for Zcash and help them find the right partners for mentoring, funding, etc.
The encrypted money for humanity needs the brightest minds of our generation building for it.

So glad to get this out!
Zypherpunk is our initiative at @ZcashLabs, a commitment to bringing the brightest minds to build on Zcash.
We already have dozens of contributors, learning, contributing, and earning their first ZEC with us, and I am so, so excited to onboard more of you.
We will be building more open-source projects and creating developer-focused media, events, and hackathons to help bring new talent to Zcash.
Zypherpunk is a public movement to build the private money for the world :)
