Aztec Labs has relaunched zk.money on the Aztec Network, restoring a self-custodial wallet that conceals balances, transfer amounts and counterparties once funds enter the privacy-focused network. Deposits from standard Ethereum wallets remain public, exposing the sending address and amount before assets move into Aztec. The wallet accepts DAI, USDC and USDT deposits, with USDC and USDT automatically converted to DAI for internal settlement. Users can create readable payment identities such as alice.zk.money using Ethereum Name Service infrastructure, instead of sharing hexadecimal addresses. Individual deposits, payments and withdrawals are capped at $2,500, while users collectively share a $50,000 deposit allowance that replenishes over time. The original zk.money launched in 2021, attracted more than 75,000 unique wallets and processed over $100 million in volume before its 2023 shutdown. Aztec Labs said technical constraints in the original architecture, rather than weak user demand, prompted the closure as it built the broader Aztec Network. The relaunch arrives while the network remains early-stage and has not received a full audit. Aztec disclosed a critical vulnerability in its V5 zero-knowledge proving system in August, with a permanent fix planned for a later version; Oxide is monitoring for transaction issues until users can migrate. Aztec said separate June exploits involving retired products did not affect the current network or relaunched wallet.
