4/ Through Zano’s Confidential Layer, Bitcoin can now exist privately as BTCx. Same Bitcoin value, but with confidential and untraceable transactions powered by Zano’s privacy infrastructure. Today, you can buy pizza with private Bitcoin. 🍕

3️⃣ The Zano Lite Wallet BETA is now live 🔥 One of the biggest barriers to using privacy blockchains has always been syncing the full blockchain first. Now users can: • Connect to remote nodes • Skip full sync • Start using Zano instantly • Access desktop privacy with a lightweight experience This is honestly massive for onboarding, especially in regions with poor internet access. Full node wallets matter for decentralization. Lite wallets matter for adoption. Now Zano has both.

Every transaction burns a small fee. More usage means more deflation. That's the mechanism. Not a marketing gimmick, just math. $60M cap at $11.68 Got a Zano alias? #Zano $ZANO #PrivacyMatters #Altcoins

The Zano Lite wallet BETA is live 🔥 The biggest barrier to trying any privacy blockchain has always been the same: sync the full blockchain, wait hours, and only then can you start using it. The Zano Lite wallet connects to a remote node instead of running a full node. No full blockchain sync. No technical setup. The same mobile wallet experience, now on desktop. What you get: 🔹 Connect to a remote node and skip the full sync 🔹 Full privacy-by-default on every transaction 🔹 Send, receive, and manage your assets 🔹 Zano Companion extension support built in 🔹 Available on desktop alongside the full node wallet This is a beta release. We encourage everyone to try it alongside the existing wallet and share feedback. Full node wallets are important for decentralization. Lite wallets are important for adoption. Now Zano has both. 🔒

I have friends* who got psyoped into believing that using Bitcoin is evil They only use it to open Lightning channels or consolidate UTXOs, but feel deeply ashamed of it every time Which is fine and dandy, except that Lightning & Liquid don’t pay the miners And the miners can one day decide to break the L2s for being incompatible with the network’s incentives We’ve entered the 2nd half of the 2020s, but bitcoiners still worship solutions from the 2010s that were just good enough for a while but never completely solved the scaling problem *I still consider them my friends, even if they insult me in ways I would never do to anyone
