I just got out of hospital. While I can somewhat function, life will never be the same. There is no cure. This is difficult but I need to share with you all how this happened. Stay indoors. Wear a mask. If you hear anyone say 'gud' or ramble about data privacy, RUN.

Amazing work! Thank you for doing this and benchmarking a real world algorithm. Noir excels at ecdsa but I’d love to see other algos as well like RSA or even things like json parsing 🙈. Noir gud. Live in the future and build with @noirlang.
excited to share results from some ZKP benchmarking i’ve been working on with @leanthebean and @jowparks!. we wanted to see how popular frameworks perform when proving passkey signatures. such proofs enable exciting use cases like privacy-preserving auth and payments. check out

Hey 👋🏽 it’s Honk 🪿💜 your favorite Aztec goose . This question was always on my mind and maybe on others “why goose?”🪿. Also curious to know who came up with it maybe @Zac_Aztec 🙃. I was going to write about it one time but it was purely speculative then so I left it until

The great thing about national holidays is the lack of distractions. A good time to get some long term strategic thinking done.

Ooooh this is big 🔥.
Now we try to fit a Honk proof verification in the 1.4M cu limit per transaction. This is my attempt to disprove Toly that there are only 6 smart contracts
