Sepolia's post merge upgrade scheduled for next week
Sepolia, which merged a few weeks ago and needed a simple post-merge upgrade to disconnect non-PoS peers is scheduled for next week. But the client versions for this are the same as for the Goerli merge says
Reminder - Sepolia's post merge upgrade is scheduled for next week 📆 If you run a node on the network, you need to upgrade it before Aug 17th. The client versions for this are the same as for the Goerli merge 😁 https://t.co/SI0tGKneSd

Web3 Hackathon announced in Kyiv early next month.
Kyiv Tech Summit is a first-of-its-kind unique event. They aim to bring together some of the best developers, technology providers, designers, innovators, and product evangelists who are looking to solve tangible, on-the-ground issues to aid the Ukrainian people in their fight for freedom.
Prizes will be awarded, and bounties available. Pre-existing projects AND new projects are allowed to be submitted. What’s most important is that the project is providing an impactful solution!
🎉Our website is live!

73 days to zkSync 2.0 on mainnet
The next roadmap milestone is Dynamic Fees and zkSync is releasing a definition of what it’ll include. Next week they’ll release the exact date. Heads up to developers on testnet, this release will be a regenesis event.
-
Dynamic Fees :
Today, all transactions on zkSync 2.0 testnet cost a fee that's independent of transaction logic & respective L1 cost. Their new fee model is similar to Ethereum's with L2-specific modifications. Each transaction will be priced based on the resources consumed. To differentiate from the standard “gas,” our measurement unit is called “ergs.” -
Removing Variant Token Payments :
This milestone will remove support to pay fees in variant tokens. This should only affect developers. The change should not be noticed by users because… -
Account Abstraction Support for Paymasters :
Users will be able to pay in different tokens directly to a ‘paymaster’ – who would then convert it into ETH for system compatibility. -
Account abstraction without Ethereum protocol changes :
Account abstraction has for a long time been a dream of the Ethereum developer community. -
EIP-1559 Support :
The same burn mechanism used by Ethereum L1 will be used in zkSync 2.0. This will be switched off initially (think of transaction tip as a system constant), as we don’t prioritize transactions with higher fees.

Aztec psyched to support Nucleo in enabling private multisigs on Ethereum.
Nucleo is a private multisig capable of private transactions, private Defi, private fundraising, and auditability through viewing keys. Nucleo provides the privacy infrastructure required for a new wave of organizations to go on-chain, enabling them to compete in the real world. Currently, in beta, Nucleo enables privacy across transactions, Defi, and fundraising, while providing audibility via shared viewing keys.

A quick 🧵 ... [1/9]
They are partnering with Aztec and Aleo - leveraging zero-knowledge cryptography.
We're psyched to support Nucleo in enabling private multisigs on Ethereum.
