[mert @mert]

if youre on Solana and haven't thought about @HeliusPrivacy, I humbly guarantee you will fall behind your competitors and your users' wants

ZK at Solana scale is a hell of a challenge, but we've done it and it will change Solana permanently

get in touch

zk on Solana will never cease to amaze me because the chain runs so fast.

What amazes me just as much is that Groth16, the proving system used in Rings, is one of the earliest snarks, created like a decade ago. Still widely used despite hundreds of successors. Nice @JensGroth16

Congrats to the Helius team on shipping this beast.

@bajpaiharsh244 @JonWalch @Helius If you break the txn graph and youre not an L1, you will go to jail if NK ever uses it

[mert @mert]

@eyezenhour The default ring is confidential, future rings will have full anonymity

[mert @mert]

something fellow nerds will appreciate:

what's cool about this design is that this required no L2s or a separate MPC network or a new chain

these are private transactions natively on the solana l1 with execution and composability on solana!

would've been 9/11 for 2021 mfers

[Helius @Helius]

Today, Solana changes forever

Introducing Solana Privacy Rings - encryption at the speed of Solana

Rings are programmable, onchain environments for encrypting money, markets, and finance - without ever leaving Solana

Now live on mainnet.

@SolanaEvents @Helius get in noobs, we're saving SOL again

[Solana Events @SolanaEvents]

[Speaker Announcement]

"Solana is the Amazon of markets, you can trade anything you want on your phone, 24/7 around the world."

@mert said that on the Breakpoint stage last year. The @Helius CEO is back in London, 15-17 November, for a debate: Is SOL money?

[mert @mert]

it is unfair to future generations that we get so many easy buying opportunities

[mert @mert]

@JonWalch @HeliusPrivacy Cc @tilo_cpn ^ for first two

As for stealth addresses, they just depend too much on wallets integrating them on a common interface and likely would lead to pretty confusing ux

[mert @mert]

@sekansnews this is comparable to the bolshevik revolution for my people

[mert @mert]

@catmcgee let the record show that I was going to call them privacy pockets (lol) until cat convinced me to call them rings

[mert @mert]

@brian_smith_0 hSOL saved my marriage
