Aztec Network Launches Public Testnet to Advance On-Chain Privacy for Ethereum

Aztec Network, a layer-2 protocol focused on programmable privacy for Ethereum, has launched its public testnet. This marks a significant step in the development of secure web3 applications as the network aims for full decentralization and user data protection. 100+ sequencers were involved in internal testing prior to this launch. This open testnet serves as the foundation for a decentralized mainnet where no central authority will have access to user data.
