Aztec’s Zac Williamson Discusses Tierra V6 Upgrade and AI Audit Tool

The notable signal here is not the upgrade itself but the pairing of an always-on AI audit harness with formal verification of cryptographic libraries — a workflow that treats security as continuous rather than a one-time review. For teams building privacy-focused L2s, where bugs in cryptography carry outsized consequences, that combination is worth watching as a template. Williamson's framing of privacy as a geopolitical filter, rather than only a user right, is the more contestable claim; whether that argument gains traction among builders and regulators is the open question.
