What happened
Aztec's Tierra (V6) upgrade is a private, decentralised layer 2 on Ethereum, which the discussion says roughly doubled proving speed and cut transaction confirmations to about 12 seconds. A 24/7 AI audit harness reportedly found critical vulnerabilities in the cryptographic libraries, and formal verification was used to gain confidence in V6. Williamson also outlined serial-numbered private notes that prove non-overlap with Lazarus-linked lists, UTXO-style handling that stops dusting attacks, and a Zcash-style turnstile to contain undetectable double-spend bugs. The episode is paywalled and gives no launch dates.
