🗄️ Gatenox introduces Gatenox Hub for Aleph Zero Hey everyone, Gatenox has completed two milestones, effectively integrating Gatenox Hub with Aleph Zero! Now both companies and individual users have the capability to authenticate ownership of their Aleph Zero wallets, thereby establishing a direct link to their real-world identities through the platform. This ensures that each blockchain address is verifiably connected to a recognized entity. The milestone serves as the foundation for future enhancements, including the introduction of a whitelisting feature for addresses that have successfully completed Corporate KYC checks. This will pave the way for the implementation of zkProof corporate DID, further bolstering security and trust by leveraging Aleph Zero’s technology to offer blockchain services that comply with different regulations.

We are proud to announce that in collaboration with @Aleph__Zero , Gatenox has successfully completed two pivotal technical milestones from Aleph Zero’s grant! 🚀 #alephzero #corporateDID #zkproof

1/ 💥 Let's go back and see how the @ETHWarsaw hackathon went for Aleph Zero! Our bounties were among the most popular at the event, with four teams winning prizes. Here's what they built during the two-day hackathon. 👇

🛠️ Aleph Zero has teamed up with @AstarNetwork and @PhalaNetwork to co-create ink!Hub—a set of tools that will streamline the ink! development process, benefiting every project in the broader @ink_lang ecosystem. 🗳️ Support the proposal:

⚖️ Today, the block-producing committee has been increased to 50 out of 125+ validators, effectively giving away the majority of this process from the Aleph Zero Foundation to the community! Now on Testnet, and 🔜 on the Mainnet. Here's why it matters!👇

🎯 Aleph Zero aims to prevent MEV by ensuring true privacy, not pseudonymity, for users and their online activities. Paired with subsecond time to finality, this opens up an entire array of use cases that were not possible before. Learn more:

The web3 identity game is about to change. 🧬 Stay tuned.

Fast forward to today, and the @interlockweb3 security browser extension, ThreatSlayer, is at ~40,000 users! After Interlock goes live on the @Aleph__Zero Mainnet, all ThreatSlayer users can connect their wallets to join the incentivized ILOCK security program. Progress! 🔥

This is the exact reason why one could argue that multisig bridges could, in rare circumstances, be safer than light client bridges (that do not validate state transition). Assuming ofc that guardians run full nodes of bridged chains.

🎙️ Podcasts Ep. 7 & 8: Understand ZK and learn how to design great Web3 products Our podcast just dropped another episode; this time, we'll be exploring the privacy-preserving characteristics of zero-knowledge proofs. This family of cryptographic proofs is fundamental to the building of Web3 solutions, and although this may all sound "cryptic" for now, you can be sure that Aleph Zero's very own Damian Straszak will break down these heady concepts into easily digestible pieces. He will also share insights into Shielder, the first privacy solution on Aleph Zero! Additionally, we'd like to invite all of you to check out last week's episode on product design featuring Aleph Zero's very own Product Design Lead, Mateusz Bryk, in which he dives into the research behind Web3 products and shares insights from his day-to-day work and gives you a behind the scenes look into how he designed the Aleph Zero brand.

Starlay Finance – the largest lending protocol in the Polkadot ecosystem is coming to Aleph Zero after an unanimous governance vote. Nightly Wallet – the multichain wallet added Aleph Zero support to the likes of Solana, Aptos, Near, and many other networks.
