With support from an @ethereumfndn grant and in collaboration with @eth_proofs, we're launching a live stress-test of ZK provers on mainnet.
We're about to find out how resilient these critical systems really are. pic.twitter.com/sdTagDRNs3
TACEO_IO launched TACEO:Proof for delegated private proving
This private proof network uses MPC-based coSNARK proving to let developers delegate ZK proof generation to a secure, decentralized MPC network with no single point of trust and no witness leakage.
Lots more upgrades are on the way; check it out if you're building ZK apps and want fast proving and real cryptographic privacy.
TACEO:Proof is now live in production.
— TACEO (@TACEO_IO) July 23, 2025
After a successful beta with over 1 million proofs generated, the first production-ready private proof network is here.
Built for speed. Designed for privacy. Powered by MPC.

Aligned explained why Ethrex was chosen as the Rollup Stack for its RaaS platform
We chose Ethrex for its stable, minimalist, and modular design and its support for the latest features like based rollups, ensuring reliability and top performance for its RaaS platform.
— Aligned (@alignedlayer) July 21, 2025
We also published an article explaining why we believe based rollups are the best design for building on Ethereum while preserving its most important features, and why we're focused on supporting them with our RaaS platform.
Check it out and contact us if you're thinking about launching a rollup.
