So we wanna get rid of the whole relayer thing in privacy protocols... I made a demo and proof of concept we can roll into @ZeraLabs

Just insane. First ever offline and privacy transaction of crypto
And $zera already doing it. Sitting at 3.8 mil mc is truly amazing. $zec is 2200x higher.
Repricing coming?
Privacy patch on all 3 ZERA pools today.
Removed an on-chain (spendPub, viewPub) registry PDA from deposit_v3.
Pat noticed it created a permanent retroactive de-anon index if viewSk ever leaked
pivot from wallet → viewPub → scan every note ever addressed to that wallet.
This is why we test and take feedback thanks everyone.
The next evolution of the ZERA Protocol is almost here.
The merge update has grown in scope, now including extra security hardening and protocol optimization that brings the backend closer to ZERA contracts v3.
Setting up better UX and the next wave of asset support.
Zoon.
Making payment rails for third-party apps, automated flows, and AI agents private with just a few lines of code.
ZERAs Confidential SDKs, another update in the immediate pipeline, will open the door to broader usage, with protocol-level buyback + 🔥 burn always on underneath.
Everyone saying “wait for $knx tech to go live, 100m will be the floor” blah blah blah.
It’s had a beautiful run up. It will crash hard. And it will crash harder once people realize $zera @ZeraLabs has already built something better and has a working MVP.
MVP Early Access is now open ✅
$ZERA holders above 5M can test the on-chain privacy flows and send feedback / report any issues. Desktop-only for now.

I am told I need to be doing more "marketing" and to tie it to the completion of the MVP, which is in it's final stages, we're working on front end, and audits now, final push to get it out the door and into everyones hands. So, why is it so important that we get it right, because most of crypto security is still “hope the backend doesn’t get owned.”
ZERA starts from the opposite assumption: the network will be hostile, so the math has to make your money useless to attackers.
Our MVP ships a zero‑knowledge cash layer on Solana where:
– Assets sit in a unified zk pool, not scattered per‑user accounts
– Amounts are hidden with Pedersen commitments ‘vG+rH‘‘vG+rH‘
– Correctness is enforced by zk‑SNARKs, not trust in infra
– Deterministic nullifiers kill double‑spend without killing anonymity
We’re starting with coins. But this is the same security primitive stack we’ll use to protect any high‑value state: salaries, supplier flows, cross‑border payouts and, eventually, critical real‑world rails.
We are in the final stretch and clean up on the MVP, I care about getting this done, if you care about cryptography‑first security, you’ll want to be in on this, and for everyone who has been on the ride with us, the wait is almost over. https://t.co/Hf06w1iagm
Next week: Zera Labs and @dev_skill_issue returns to @MCGlive to sit down with @ChillTRD & @DineroDom0.
Expect a fresh round of talk about ZERA, cash-style privacy in a digital world, project updates and more.
