1/ A few months ago, Argentina made a bold move for privacy.

https://t.co/KYkcHAnWpq

Buenos Aires' local government launched an app powered by ZK, allowing residents to verify age, ID, and more—without sharing personal details like DOB or addresses.

Here’s why this is a game-changer. 🧵

2025 is calling.

It says: "Don't sleep on Horizen." 🛎️

ZK is changing privacy, but here’s the catch:

❌ It's too slow.
❌ It's too expensive.
❌ It's too complex for most developers.

Horizen simplifies it all:

✅Blazing-fast ZK verification
✅Minimal costs
✅Streamlined zkApp deployment process
