Aztec Network, a privacy-focused Ethereum second-layer network, officially launched its Ignition Chain on the Ethereum mainnet on Wednesday, following the launch of its AZTEC token sale last week.
Ignition Chain, which supports programmable privacy, launched its mainnet on the heels of the public testnet in May this year. The team said Ignition Chain's validator queue reached 500 on Wednesday, triggering block production on the Ethereum mainnet.
Ignition Chain is at the heart of Aztec's vision to build a "private world computer", enabling developers to build DeFi applications with end-to-end privacy. The network aims to solve Ethereum's limitations in transparency with zero-knowledge proofs, while maintaining verifiability. In 2022, the Aztec team raised $100 million in a Series B round led by a16z.
