Horizen

Ahold Delhaize, one of the world’s largest food retailers, is another name added to this year’s breach list.

Its U.S. division was hit by ransomware. Hackers claim to have stolen 6TB of sensitive data, impacting brands like Stop & Shop and Food Lion.

The damage spreads fast ⚡

Not all messages need to be encrypted.

Some deserve to be printed on ultra-soft cotton.

Support privacy and look good doing it! ⤵️

The ZEN community just made a call that could shape onchain development for years to come.

The proposal from @thriveprotocol passed, setting aside 1M $ZEN to fund the apps and tools Horizen needs to grow.

A big step forward for ecosystem development:

Planning to “figure it out later”? Don’t.

💡 New ZenIP Idea is Open for Discussion💡

This proposal will call for the implementation of a sustainable treasury management framework for Horizen DAO.

Goal: Earn yield, deepen on-chain liquidity, and diversify long-term funding.

🏆 Big congrats to Proof of Liquidity, winners of "The Most Innovative zkApp using zkVerify Relayer" at the @horizenglobal-sponsored @__zkhack__ Berlin!

🔗 https://t.co/j7LvOcUskP

Their zkApp enables fee discounts across multiple accounts for liquidity providers — without revealing identity. A major step forward for privacy in DeFi.

Built with the @zkvprotocol Relayer. Deployed on @base Sepolia. Proofs verified at scale.

zkHack Berlin was a massive success — thanks to all the builders who showed what’s possible when privacy meets performance.

Let’s keep building 🏗️

To claim test ZEN correctly, make sure your wallets, network, and token contracts are set up right.

⚠️ The signature step in the ZEN migration dry run is crucial.

The Genius Act proves stablecoins and compliance can coexist, but we need to add a privacy layer into the mix.

Otherwise, we’re just rebuilding the same broken system as @robviglione pointed out to @cryptodotnews.

Do you think stablecoins have a place in the Genius Act framework?

🚨DeFi Users on EON - Action Required🚨

To prepare for the migration to Base, the EON network is winding down.

If you hold wZEN or any DeFi tokens on EON, you must act before 7/23 to ensure your assets are included in the migration.

Follow the guide: 👇 https://mirror.xyz/0xF4D306be0E45E78bfE29588Bd018fe9CE405a62d/8PNAVI5Uq0n_kGP024Eg8cO1L4DJ_YuioAij58W_a7U

If your $ZEN is locked in a smart contract or dApp, it won’t migrate to Base.

To prepare for the ERC-20 switch, move your tokens to a regular wallet (EOA) like MetaMask before the migration.

This is the only way to ensure you can claim the new ZEN on @base.

We’re integrating directly into @ZKVProtocol's proof verifier and ecosystem 🤝

While devs can run efficient verifiers, $ZEN holders will get early access to an allocation of the upcoming zkVerify tokens.

Follow @ZKVProtocol now, you’ll thank yourself later.
