🚨 Calling all ZK builders! 🚨 Privacy & Scaling Explorations & Aztec are offering $20,000 in grants to bring Semaphore to Noir—a chance to push the boundaries of privacy & ZK applications. Build, document & optimize Semaphore in Noir. Apply now! 👇 🧵 1/5

🔹 Why Semaphore in Noir? Semaphore enables private actions on Ethereum using ZKPs. Bringing it to Noir makes proofs more efficient, accessible & modular, unlocking new privacy-first applications while advancing the Noir ecosystem. 🛠️ Noir + Semaphore = 🔥 2/5

📢 Announcing Noir Research Grant #3 Recipient! Selecting a team was extremely difficult—the talent and quality of applications we received were outstanding. But after careful evaluation, we had to choose one. We’re excited to announce that @HashCloak has been selected to

Over the weekend a team building with zkmopro and Semaphore won second place at the ETHGlobal hackathon! Mopro is not just for ZK apps but any mobile application looking to integrate privacy-preserving features! ✨

That's a killer combination not going to lie 😁 Congrats 🥈 Zuma team! Ya-wen Jeng, Yu-Rung, and Chi-wen

Anonymous multi-sig wallets A discussion right now in Safe.eth 's forum by adding Semaphore as modules. Adding privacy back to signers is key to prevent onchain spear phishing targeting. Jump in to support this proposal and/or raise concerns to make it better FYI

🚀 Semaphore V4 in Rust is here! You can now generate and verify Semaphore V4 proofs in: - 🦀 Rust - 📲 Native mobile (iOS & Android) Built using zkmopro Fully compatible with the current Semaphore implementation, including EdDSA for identity and LeanIMT for Merkle trees.

7/ This work couldn't have been done without our cryptography engineers ewynx and Alex. And of course the lovely people at Privacy & Scaling Explorations and Semaphore (andyguzman.eth 🦇🔊 🔜 ZuBerlin (14-22 Jun), Vivian Plasencia) and Noir (Savio 👽, Pedro | @zkpedro)

It’s been great working on Semaphore in Noir 🤩 Really cool to dive into how Semaphore by Privacy & Scaling Explorations works. And ofc, to be working with Noir again. Thanks to all involved for their support! And we’re not done yet. The best (ahum, batching) is still to come 🙂

Aaaand we're heading for EthDam.com by CryptoCanal priv/acc!! 🇳🇱 Starting tomorrow you can find Vivian Plasencia Tell her about your awesome project, idea or work you're doing. And make sure to check her presentation and hear the latests 🦀🚀📱 Come and say hi!!!🐧🐧🐧
